- Sister, Sister…in the record books! On May 2, Alyssa Thompson assisted her little sis Gisele for her first-ever NWSL goal, and just like that, they became the first pair of sisters in league history to connect on a goal. Put that one up on the fridge at home!
- Born just 13 months apart, Alyssa and Gisele have been inseparable since day one. And yes, their Angel City FC jersey numbers are right next to each other (Alyssa #21, Gisele #20). Sibling goals, literally.
- The Thompsons are only the third sister duo to ever suit up for the U.S. Women’s National Team. The Fair twins did it in ’97, the Mewis sisters in 2021, and now, it’s the Thompson era.
- Back in 2022, the Thompsons became the first high school athletes to sign a multiyear NIL deal with Nike. California law + insane talent = a sneakerhead dream come true.
- It all started with pjs and soccer balls in their backyard, with their dad cheering from the sidelines. Fast forward: they’re playing pro, repping the USWNT, AND hitting the Cowboy Carter Tour?! Main character arc unlocked!
