Alex Morgan's retirement game attracted significant attention, with ticket sales surging after her announcement. However, her farewell was overshadowed by criticism of the Snapdragon Stadium's unclean playing conditions, prompting outrage from fans who felt she deserved better for her final match. Morgan's illustrious career includes 224 matches for the U.S. Women's National Team, 123 goals, and two World Cup victories, solidifying her legacy as one of the greatest players in history. As she prepares for motherhood with her second child, her impact extends beyond the pitch, advocating for women's sports and equal pay. Fellow athletes, including Simone Biles and Christian Pulisic, praised her contributions to the game and women's sports in general. Despite the controversy, a pre-match ceremony honored her remarkable achievements as she closed a storied chapter in her life.
