It was a weekend marked by returns in the NWSL and farewells in the WSL.

Host Jillian Sakovits is joined by The Athletic’s Asli Pelit to discuss Mallory Swanson’s first appearance for the Chicago Stars since becoming a new mom and Temwa Chawinga’s continued scoring binge for the Kansas City Current. They also break down the Utah Royals’ eight-match unbeaten streak and what might explain their success. Then, The Athletic’s Cerys Jones joins Jillian to look back at the final matchday for the WSL. They review Sam Kerr’s record-tying goal for Chelsea, whether Khadija “Bunny” Shaw might still find a home at Manchester City and what’s next for Manchester United after finishing fourth in the league table.
