Alex Morgan hopes she’s emerging from her last injury layoff for a while.
Morgan has returned from a minor procedure on her right knee and expects to play in the Portland Thorns’ final home game of the season. The game Sunday at Providence Park against the Washington Spirit is already a sellout with more than 21,000 fans expected.
It’s been a roller-coaster year for Morgan, with the high of winning the Women’s World Cup while fighting off another frustrating injury before the minor surgery.
She’s not sure if she’s 90-minutes fit yet, but she’s on her way. “It’s not easy being injured and off such long periods of time, and so many inconsistencies for me in the last couple of years from being injured,” Morgan said.
