Carrasco, a midfielder for LA Galaxy, broke the news in a post on Instagram, posing on the beach with the couple’s two dogs. 

Morgan followed up with a tweet of her own.

The women’s soccer competition at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics begins on July 22, roughly three months after Morgan is expected to give birth. According to NBC Sports' Nick Zaccardi, Morgan's goal is to return in time to play at the Olympics.

Morgan and Carrasco met while they played soccer at Cal and were married in 2014.
