Players change their style all the time — I swear Neymar is on his 10th hairstyle by now. To avoid the mundane, people enjoy switching it up and acquire a new look from time-to-time. Eventually someone won’t even resemble their younger self and that’s what nearly all the players on this list of biggest football player transformations have done.
Alex Morgan is expecting a baby in two months, but that hasn’t kept her off the pitch. Recent videos of Alex Morgan training pregnant show the USWNT star is still better than you’ll ever be, even as she carries a child inside her.

Costa Rica had never beaten the USWNT, lost 6-0 in a friendly back in November and smartly decided to rest seven starters with both eyes on a crucial semifinal matchup against either Canada or Mexico, but any notion of this being an entirely worthless exercise for the viewer at home was put to bed thanks to Press’s stunning early strike.

The 2019 NWSL Best XI was released Thursday and boy is it a mess. Not even USWNT stars — some of whom were chosen on the team — could figure out how certain players were on it and others left off.
None of it is doing the NWSL any favors as it tries to build on the success of the 2019 Women’s World Cup and remain among the world’s best leagues amidst growing pressure from top European clubs.
Mira cómo Katie Nolan de ESPN se hace pasar por la mamá del fútbol de las estrellas de USWNT Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe y Kelley O’Hara. Nolan recogió a sus chicas de la práctica y vino con todas las necesidades posteriores a la práctica: rodajas de naranja, cajas de jugo y conversación sobre lo que sucedió en la práctica.
