FIFA Website Praises USWNT Star Alex Morgan As 'Very Easy On The Eye' [View all]

For all the criticism FIFA takes for its views toward women, it really doesn't get enough credit for the resolute manner by which it clings to those outdated attitudes.

Take, for example, Alex Morgan. If you pay any attention to the USWNT, you know that Morgan is the star of the team. She's the engine that keeps the team humming, and no one on the field is able to impact a game as well as her.

She rightfully deserves special attention from FIFA, and a new feature on the organization's website grants her that spotlight....

"Alex Morgan is one of the most popular players in USA women’s football," according to FIFA's website. "A talented goalscorer with a style that is very easy on the eye and good looks to match, she is nothing short of a media phenomenon."


Would they describe Cristiano Ronaldo as "hunky"?!
