Alex Morgan statue makes New York City stop

Alex Morgan is one of the biggest soccer stars in the United States — but she’s not usually 20 feet tall.

A new statue of the USWNT star made its way into Manhattan, an 825-pound bust of the soccer legend wearing her U.S. uniform and holding the World Cup trophy like the Statue of Liberty.

The statue, which was presented to Morgan by Fox Sports in late June ahead of the upcoming women’s 2023 World Cup, is on a national tour — it stopped by Seattle for the MLB All-Star Game last week.

“Sixth Avenue, between 47th and 48th Streets, New York City,” Rachel Bachman, senior sports reporter for the Wall Street Journal tweeted Monday, identifying the location of Morgan’s likeness in Manhattan.

“Ahh so that’s where she is,” Morgan responded. “Glad to know she’s thriving.”

The massive statue was made out of reinforced and hard-coated foam, along with 3D-printed resin for the head and the trophy.

It was presented to Morgan, 34, by Fox Sports to honor her impact on the USWNT, as well as to promote the network’s coverage of the upcoming tournament, which begins for the United States on July 22 in Auckland, New Zealand against Vietnam.

Morgan, who is a two-time World Cup champion for the United States in 2015 and 2019, is approaching her fourth World Cup appearance.

“Alex is the representative of this incredible dynasty,” Fox Sports’ Tom Rinaldi said about the statue.

“It’s cute, it’s taller than me for sure,” Morgan quipped when she first saw the massive statue. “It’s so real.

“We should pack that in our suitcases and take it with us.”

Morgan won the Silver Boot at the 2019 Women’s World Cup, scoring six goals and three assists en route to leading the US to its second consecutive international title.

She made her World Cup debut for the USWNT in 2011, when she appeared in five matches as a substitute and scored twice, including a memorable goal in the final against Japan.
