United States Head Coach Gregg Berhalter praises Seattle Sounders forward Jordan Morris ahead of upcoming USMNT friendlies

Jordan Morris’ return to the United States national team has been a long time coming.

The Seattle Sounders forward suffered a hamstring injury in September 2017 that kept him out of the final 2018 FIFA World Cup Qualifying matches before missing the entire 2018 MLS season after tearing his ACL in CONCACAF Champions League play last February.

Morris is healthy now and looks as good if not better than he did before the injury. After a strong preseason, Morris has sprinted out of the gate, tallying three goals and an assist through three matches and has helped lead Seattle to a perfect 3-0-0 start, the club’s best since 2009.
