DiaboliK. Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 Alex Morgan says she is "disappointed" with the reaction to her goal celebration against England and questioned the double standards in women's sport. Morgan insists her 'tea drinking' celebration after heading the winner to send the United States into the World Cup final "wasn't a hit to England". The forward had been accused of taking a swipe at Phil Neville's Lionesses. "I'm a little taken aback, you have to laugh about it," said Morgan. Morgan, 30, feels the reaction to her celebration highlights double standards in sport when compared to some of the elaborate celebrations in the men's game. "I feel that there is some sort of double standards for females in sports to feel like we have to be humble in our success. We have to celebrate but not too much, we have to do something, but it always has to be in a limited fashion," she said. "You see men celebrating all around the world in big tournaments, grabbing their crotch or whatever." Morgan also insists her celebration was a tribute to the phrase "that's the tea", slang for gossip or interesting news, frequently used on social media by Game of Thrones actress Sophie Turner.
