Sandra Herrera and Lisa Carlin recap the weekend slate of NWSL matches. Angel City vs Houston Dash as well as San Diego vs OL Reign end with one team in each game playing down a player. Two DOGSO (denial of obvious goal-scoring opportunity) calls force San Diego and Houston Dash to adapt and adjust on the pitch. Sophia Smith puts on a show in Portland with the Thorns picking up all three points over Washington to jump the Spirit in the standings, plus, Kansas City snaps their 4-game losing streak. North Carolina is sneaky good this season as Sean Nahas’ plan falls into place. Gotham FC welcomes Midge Purce back to the pitch and Lynn Williams is vibing before the World Cup. Full recap and analysis.
