Alan Gordon replaces injured Jordan Morris on USA's roster vs. Mexico

LA Galaxy veteran forward Alan Gordon has replaced the injured Jordan Morris on the USA's roster vs. Mexico, U.S. Soccer announced on Tuesday.

Morris suffered a hamstring injury in the Seattle Sounders' Western Conference semifinal second leg against FC Dallas, in which the Sounders prevailed on a 4-2 aggregate. The injury is enough to prevent Morris from taking part for the U.S. following a rookie season in MLS in which he scored 12 goals and had four assists. He has also assisted on a goal in the playoffs, doing so in the Sounders' first-leg rout of FC Dallas.
