Alex Morgan sounded off on critics of her now-famous "tea-sipping" celebration, accusing them of holding her to a "double standard." Speaking to the press on Friday ahead of the U.S. team's World Cup final match-up with the Netherlands, Morgan said, via ESPN, "I feel that there is some sort of double standard for females in sports, to feel like we have to be humble in our successes and have to celebrate, but not too much or in a limited fashion."
She added, to drive the point home, "You see men celebrating all over the world in big tournaments, grabbing their sacks or whatever it is. And when I look at sipping a cup of tea, I am a little taken aback by the criticism." Read more... More about World Cup 2019, Alex Morgan, Us Women S Soccer Team, Culture, and Sports
