U.S. striker Alex Morgan expects the upcoming Women's World Cup to be the"best one yet", with the increase in the number of teams to 32 from 24 improving competitiveness and boosting viewing figures.
Morgan said arriving in the host country for a World Cup gives rise to a mixture of"nerves, anticipation and excitement" and that while there are a lot of similarities with the previous editions this one is"going to be the best one yet." The U.S. held a training camp in New Zealand in January, beating the co-hosts in two matches in Wellington and Auckland, and Morgan hopes home fans will adopt the Americans as their second-favourite team behind the 'Football Ferns'.
