That day is the last day of training before USA first match in the Gold Cup.
"Okay, boys. That's all for today. I'll see you tomorrow for the match against Guyana" said Berhalter.
"Yes, coach" replied all players before they returned back to their hotel.
Later on;
Ryan just watching movie in his room when he got a FaceTime request from Alex.
Ryan: Hi, sis. How you're doing?
Alex: I'm good. What about you?
Ryan: I'm good too.
Alex: So, how do you feel for your first match in Gold Cup tomorrow?
Ryan: Quite nervous, of course. Especially my big sister scored 5 goals in the first match in the World Cup.
Alex: I'm sure you can do better than me though. You're played in the top tier division of the best league in the world though.
Ryan: So do you. But, I think I'll be fine once I get into the pitch.
Alex: I'm sure you will. Just relax and everything will be on your favour.
Ryan: Yeah. I think I can handle that. By the way, congratulation to make it to the knockout stage. I'm proud of all of you.
Alex: Thanks, honey. Now, it's your time to make me proud of you.
Ryan: Very well. I won't let you down.
Alex: Good boy. So, how many goals that you want to score tomorrow?
Ryan: Well, hattrick sounds good.
Alex: Really confident, aren't you despite being nervous.
Ryan: Well, it can't be helped though. Big impact in the first match won't hurt.
Alex: Now, you're sound like a true Morgan.
Ryan: Of course I am. I'm Alex Morgan's greatest brother after all.
Alex: Of course you are. You're my only brother after all.
Ryan: By the way, sis. How's everybody else?
Alex: Oh, they're good. It just that Tierna and Mal can't stop talking about you.
Ryan: Really? Why's that?
Alex: Well, you're the only boy that close with them in the camp with the same age, right. Christian, Weston and Reggie didn't really close with them.
Ryan: Really? I'll call them more frequently then.
Alex: You better do. Don't worry, those 2 are nice girls.
Ryan: I know that.
Alex: Anyway, I need to go now. I'll call you again when I missed you.
Ryan: Okay, sis. Goodbye. I love you.
Alex: Bye. I love you too.
Then, they hung up.
"Your sister?" asked Cannon.
"Yeah. She and all the girls said hi to all of us" replied Ryan.
"She's so caring about you" said Cannon.
"Yeah. And overprotective too" replied Ryan. Cannon just chuckled.
Meanwhile in France;
"You're talking to Ryan, right?" asked Lindsey.
"Yes. He said hi to all of you by the way" replied Alex.
"Did he still remember me?" asked Mal.
