Yorkshire Tea offer USA star Alex Morgan surprise package after World Cup celebration
ALEX MORGAN is still causing a stir for her controversial ‘tea-sipping’ celebration in the Women’s World Cup semi-final against the England Lionesses, but Yorkshire Tea has now offered her a free pack of their tea as a peace offering.
Sorry you had to drink pretend tea. If you’d run out of the proper stuff, you only had to ask

“Dear @USWNT,” tweeted the official Yorkshire Tea Twitter account.
“Sorry you had to drink pretend tea. If you’d run out of the proper stuff, you only had to ask!
“P.S. No hard feelings - good luck on Sunday.”
The tweet was sent with an image showing a giant bag of Yorkshire Tea, containing 1040 tea bags, packed inside a box, addressed to Alex Morgan.

It was believed that Morgan’s celebration was simply a way of trolling the England team and fans.
But she has since revealed that the meaning was much more deep that that.
“I wanted to keep it interesting,” she said after the match.
“I know Megan Rapinoe has the best celebration. I had to try and step up this game.
