The poignant reason behind Lewis Morgan's performance against Atlanta United

Lewis Morgan scored both goals in Inter Miami CF's win over Atlanta United and managed to celebrate his MLS scores for the first time. However, there is also another -and special- reason he celebrated. "It was my dad's birthday this week so that makes it even more special", said the striker.

"Scoring the goals was a massive weight off my shoulders, goals and assists are what I base my game around so I was happy to get off the mark", he added.

Morgan revealed what he promised to his father before the match: "I promised him I would score. The time difference isn't great for everyone back home but my family stays up and watches all the matches so I got some nice texts when I came back to the dressing room", concluded.
