The Orlando Pride didn't get the sweep of the Kansas City Current, but they at least kept the visitors from celebrating a win in Orlando. The rematch between two of the top teams in the NWSL was a tightly contested one, but it didn't quite live up to the hype. Still, the Pride managed to continue their unbeaten run and added another point and clean sheet to the growing pile.
We tried to hit the game's high points, but we also had a few critiques, although the result is ultimately a good (if unsatisfying) one. We checked our score predictions from last week and made our selections for Player of the Match.
Our mailbagbox this week asked us about Marta, Cori Dyke, Pride attendance, and much more. Remember, you can ask us anything by hitting us up on Twitter at either @TheManeLand or @SkoPurpSoccer and using the hashtag #AskSkoPurp. Or you can visit our show page, scroll down, and fill out the handy form. We'd also appreciate any ratings or reviews you can leave wherever you get your podcasts, and if you do that on Apple Podcasts, we'll find them easily and read them on the show.
After the mailbagbox, we discussed the U-20 USWNT's improbable late rally against Germany to force extra time and penalties. The Pride's Ally Lemos got things going with a great assist and the Yanks advanced to today's semifinal.
Finally, we look ahead to Orlando's road contest against a stubborn Bay FC side that has been playing much better of late. The Pride will look to get the offense going against a team that has been stingy in recent weeks. We'll have to wait to see who prevails. We provided our key matchups and score predictions.
Here’s how Episode 61 went down:
0:15 – The Pride didn't score as the offense continues to sputter, but at least they didn't concede in the rematch with the Current.
19:13 – Our mailbagbox seemingly grows every week.
43:45 – Ally Lemos started an amazing U-20 USWNT comeback and our preview for the Pride at Bay FC.
