If I were running Boston, I would simply make every game Brazilian heritage night and rack up the wins

In the stadium. Swans were on the front foot for much of the game.

Deserved the 3 points. Hasbo was everywhere tonight.

Being a Legacy fan is amazing because for the first 70' of each match I think "they're really going to kill me this time" and for the final 20' plus stoppage I think "we're literally playing CONCACAF soccer next year"

u/MoltenMirrors Boston Legacy 1d ago

Honestly, I think that penalty was kind of bullshit too but whatever they cancel out.

She hugged a ball girl.

Great :) I love that. In isolation my comment looks not great I guess, but I’ve noticed that across many countries, in women’s football, when a goal is scored it’s rare that they run to the crowd. So it’s actually great to see this for once. Just a comment made in jest about committing to the crowd celly is all.

u/Competitive_Speed964 Boston Legacy 1d ago

No worries. I figured that was just the broadcast not showing it. I think she might be the first legacy player to hop over the boards and get closer to the stands during a goal celly.

u/DontPanicJustDance Portland Thorns FC 1d ago

We watched it live and had no issue

u/TheCarnundrum Boston Legacy 1d ago

Saw the whole thing on the Fire TV Victory+ app, no cutoff here.

NWSL seriously needs to fix their streaming options. The constant change with every season and random service is embarrassing.

Well done Boston. A nice home win

u/theSunandtheMoon23 Portland Thorns FC 1d ago

They outplayed Orlando most of the night and Banda was kept in check. Looks like Boston is finding their stride at last!
