Looking at their skill set and their knack for calling out all things injustice, it is no surprise that Megan would be great buddies with Alex Morgan. Alex can be best described as Rapinoe’s second in command. Morgan is a striker whose place in the USWNT squad is undeniable. The friendship of these two powerful women began when they started playing together. And both of them since have been pillars of the national team. So, it won’t be a surprise to know how much the two ladies dote over each other.

In an older tweet by Rapinoe in 2012, she warned Alex of a potential emergency room situation. The tweet is simple, straight to the point, and directly mentions Morgan. The tweet says, “If you hold in a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel and die!” Be careful Alex!!!”
"@OMGFacts: @alexmorgan13 If you hold in a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel and die!" Be careful alex!!!

The tweet, being ancient, does not have much activity on it, and it is not discernable whether Megan said that as a joke or as a genuine concern. Further, there is no response from Morgan’s side as well.

But, given the cheerful relationship between the captain and the vice-captain, it is hard to believe Alex got offended. In fact, the tweet has a strain of genuine caution, and it might be that Rapinoe was referring to some prior incident.
