Olympics Star Alex Morgan Scores Hat Trick In Victory

United States crushed Ireland, 5-0, thanks to a superduper hat trick performed by none other than Olympic gold, Alex Morgan.

“We’ve been waiting and itching to get out there on the field, I think (this) showed that we wanted to get out there and play. I just wanted to keep taking shots and they kept going my way. Abby and everyone just kept saying ‘Shoot! Shoot! It’s a slick surface!’ So I did. I was feeling it.” Alex said after the victory.

Alex scored the first time at the 24th minute mark, then again at 34 minutes, then again at 44 minutes. Sydney Leroux added two more goals to boost the U.S. to the victory and 4-0-2 for the season.

“Every time she touched the ball something dangerous happened,” Acting U.S. coach Jill Ellis said.
