Alex Morgan made less than $300 per match during her first 22-game season in the NWSL. The two-time FIFA World Cup winner revealed that her first season in the nascent soccer league saw her earn a grand total of $6,000 to play for the Portland Thorns. "Not a month. For the season," she said on a Wednesday, September 3, appearance on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast. "$6,000 to play in the NWSL for the season." Morgan's revelation came in a conversation with podcast host Alex Cooper about her role in advancing the NWSL and the rights for women's soccer players throughout her 16-year pro career.
