In her Instagram account, the former athlete shared images from the event and thanked everyone and the sponsors who made the evening possible.

On September 8, she played her last match as a professional, where she was honored for her career. Many were surprised that she was not called up to the 2024 Paris Olympics with the United States, marking her first official tournament not participating with the Stars and Stripes since the 2008 Olympics.
At 35, Alex Morgan decided it was time to start a new chapter, especially with the news of her second pregnancy. In 2016, she appeared on the cover of the FIFA 16 video game alongside Lionel Messi.
The Alex Morgan Foundation supports women and young people in achieving their dreams in sports and life. Undoubtedly, soccer fans will miss her on the field, but she will surely continue to achieve success in this new stage of her career.
