Two games on at Midweek for the NWSL, beginning with...
The Houston Dash hosting the Portland Thorns FC. Britt Eckerstrom and Jane Campbell are set to start in goal. Portland started in the twenty-fifth minute with an Ana-Maria Crnogorcevic goal, after chaos in the box and touches from Christine Sinclair and Tobin Heath set the play up. Houston tied it in the fifty-seventh minute with a Kyah Simon goal, coming off of Veronica Latsko. In stoppage time, the Dash's Janine van Wyk took a yellow card for her foul. The final held at 1-1, with Simon named woman of the match. Also starring for the Dash were Nichelle Prince, Latsko, Kristie Mewis, Lindsay Agnew, and van Wyk. The Thorns' best were Eckerstrom (five for six in saves), Emily Sonnett, Meghan Klingenberg, Sinclair, Heath, and Crnogorcevic.
The other game has the Utah Royals FC hosting the Orlando Pride. Ashlyn Harris and Abby Smith are in the six-yard boxes. Utah's Katrina Gorry had a yellow card for a foul in the eighty-sixth minute. The final remained at 0-0, with the woman of the match being Brooke Elby of the Royals. Also strong for Utah were Rachel Corsie, Desiree Scott, Kelley O'Hara, and Diana Matheson, while Orlando's best were Shelina Zadorsky, Monica, Ali Krieger, and Marta.
