USWNT’s Mia Fishel suffers ACL injury on eve of Gold Cup

• Chelsea striker tore knee ligaments while on international duty
• Alex Morgan recalled to US squad after initially being dropped

Alex Morgan, who had long been a mainstay on the US women's team, has been added to the roster for the 2024 Concacaf W Gold Cup after Mia Fishel sustained an injury during training, US Soccer said on Tuesday.

Fishel tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee during training on Monday, which opened the door for the veteran forward to be in the squad when the US open their tournament on 20 February against the Dominican Republic.
