'FIFA 16' Cover Featuring Female Players Alex Morgan, Christine Sinclair! Photos, Release Date

Some weeks ago, we did post something about female soccer players imminently being included in the upcoming FIFA 16 game from EA Sports. With the hype and success that the United States women’s soccer team had recently accomplished, adding women to the long-time soccer game came up towards the end of May, and the only thing left was to figure out which among the leading female soccer players would get the privilege of being featured alongside Lionel Messi for FIFA 16. Among the names that were thrown into the mix included that of Carli Lloyd, a favorite of US President Barrack Obama and best known of course for scoring those three goals in the final match of the US against Japan. Other names include that of Hope Solo, Sydney Leroux, Megan Rapinoe and Abby Wambatch. With so many names to mention, who could possibly end up gaining the nod? After all the waiting, Alex Morgan beat out all the lovely and talented female soccer players for that honor, someone seen as the future face of the women’s national team. She is no doubt the US team’s go-to star and was someone who many are bound to approve. She beat out one of the more recognizable faces on the US team, Abby Wambatch. But the thing is, Wambatch is most likely nearing the end of her stint with the team. Additionally, she was used sparingly in the US team’s World Cup 2015 stint. However, Morgan is not the only female that will be getting the honor of being the first female player to be featured on the FIFA game covers. Morgan’s selection covers only the North American region so don’t be surprised to find a different pretty face for the FIFA 16 versions coming out in Canada. As far as the Canadian region is concerned, it would only be fitting to see a familiar face from the Canadian national team getting the nod. And that honor has been granted to Christine Sinclair, the all-time leading scorer for the said ballclub. “We know that in North America, in both the United States and Canada, women’s soccer is a very integral part of soccer culture and it’s also helping to grow the sport in North America. So we wanted to celebrate that by putting Alex on the cover” says David Pekush, Senior Global Product Marketing Manager for EA Sports. FIFA 16 is set to be released on September 22 which should now allow female gamers to use the different women’s national teams. Among the teams that they can choose include the United States, Canada, England and Germany.
