Allison Murphy Palisch (born Allison Renee Murphy, 13 May 1994), formerly known as Alli Murphy, is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for English club Watford FC in the FA Women's National League South. Born and raised in the United States to an Irish father,[4] she capped for the Republic of Ireland women's national team.
"It was good to see her in green, white and gold," said her father, Stephen Murphy, who years after coming to the United States has just a hint of the Irish lilt when he talks.
