Morgan came on as a substitute on 69 minutes for Rianna Dean.
Morgan joined Spurs from Orlando Pride on the final day of the summer transfer window on a year-long loan and did not have to quarantine upon arrival at the club.
However, a “small setback” in training meant that Morgan had to wait until November to make her debut.
“A small setback keeping me from doing what I love,’ Morgan tweeted in October.
“Can’t wait to get on the field with this team in the next few weeks. Literally can’t wait.”
She was named on the bench for Spurs’ 4-0 FA Cup quarterfinal loss to Arsenal in September but didn’t make an appearance.
Spurs are ninth in the WSL after a poor run of games with four losses and one draw in their last five league matches.
