She's simply jealous. The global power of men's football far exceeds what women have to offer and they can't handle it. What's worse, NFL season kicks off in like six weeks so nobody will be talking about Morgan & Rapinoe again

 

Totally agree , she tries to capture media attention especially after the WC Saga was over

Alex Morgan shares on Twitter an article "Ronaldo is an icon of corruption in sports "  

 

 

It's not like it's not true though.

why he's an icon of corruption ? the only case he was found guilty is the tax one with Spanish Government and he settled a solution with and pain almost 18m Euros , the rape case for me is still just talking on paper , no evidence that this really happened

For me all those major players committing tax fraud and getting off with a (for them) tiny fine are icons of corruption

This entire situation comes from the fact the Beckham Tax law has lapsed in 2014 and players no longer pay 24% but rather 43-52%. Hence the off-shore accounts are running wild & getting cracked one after another. I wonder if Alex Morgan would like to pay 24% income tax or rather 52%?

i even wonder how come in a Capitalist country from decades , they want total equity between players and other players , for me only prizes from the federation should be equal , but contracts no way , this could happen when women capture money for their teams like men do
