In a rematch of a Women's World Cup semifinal match, the US Women's National Team faced Germany on Wednesday in the final of the SheBelieves Cup.

Things were not going well for the US until Alex Morgan unleashed one of the best goals of her career, evening things up in the 35th minute.

Morgan took a long pass from Meghan Klingenberg and deftly flicked the ball with her left foot over the defender's head. Before the ball came back down to the ground, Morgan slammed it past the goalkeeper and into the back of the net.

So good.
