Watch: Alex Morgan & Christen Press score first goals for new clubs in San Diego Wave vs Angel City
United States Women's national team star Alex Morgan scored her first goal for San Diego Wave on Saturday with a cool finish to put her side ahead against Angel City, before international colleague Christen Press then swooped at the other end.
Morgan, 32, joined the Wave from Orlando Pride in December 2021, having also spent time in England with Tottenham last year.
And she was on target as her new club took on Angel City in the NWSL Challenge Cup.
