Alex Morgan made a young fan’s day Thursday days after he went viral for his love for the U.S. women’s national team.
The young USWNT fan named Luca was the centerpiece of a video in which he was cheering for Morgan in a “Ted Lasso” themed t-shirt at Monday’s Concacaf W Championship opener.

Morgan had a big game that day, scoring two goals in the team’s 3-0 win over Haiti.
After seeing the video, Morgan called it a “cuteness overload” Wednesday, then provided Luca with a USWNT jersey prior to Thursday’s match vs. Jamaica. The jersey was signed by Morgan, and the back featured his name as well as Morgan’s No. 13.
