It was all USA in this 2019 Women’s World Cup opening match for both the United States and Thailand on Tuesday night from Reims, France. With Cal alumni leading the attack on both side, the heavily favored USA routed the Thais.
Cal alumni Alex Morgan, who is legacy will be strongly tied to how the USWNT fare in their bid to repeat as World Cup champs this summer, got the scoring started. She kept her foot on the accelerator for the full 90+ minutes of this match and recorded 5 goals when it was all over.
