national teams would be in this year’s version of EA Sports’ FIFA series, and
now a trio of women will feature on the cover of FIFA 16.
Joining Lionel Messi will be Alex Morgan on the American
version, while Canada WNT superstar Christine Sinclair will share space with

''This edition is the first time ever that women will be included in the FIFA game with the inclusion of 12 national teams: Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the United States of America.
“As soon as we knew Women’s National Teams were joining FIFA 16, we immediately recognized that Christine and Alex would be the perfect cover athletes based on their accomplishments and what they represent for their respective countries and the sport of women’s soccer,” said David Pekush, Sr. Manager of North America Marketing for EA SPORTS. “They are exhilarating players and exude heart and courage on the pitch, and we are extremely proud to be working with them this year.”
