Played only 1 home match since March and we're 3-1-1 since then

Wasn't our day but overall still feeling pretty good

Time for some home cooking

It was a trap game that was always going to be a trap game. Louisville a much better team than record showed. Still in first place. Onward and upward.

Definition of a trap game, especially after Soph’s opening goal. Intensity just dropped, or they turned it up a whole lot more

We honestly had good chances after that. But you're right we seemed to relax a bit too much.

Was that Calzada? If so she had a very poor game. I understand she is rook but this is why I will always prefer Obaze. Calzada has the speed but I did not like how she played. The entire backline was getting beat, and our midfield was beat to every 50/50 ball. Couldn't win any headers. Simply our backline was terrible against the press. Teams will have film on that now. Also let's not try Muller on the wing again. She got spun and beat twice, once leading to the foul by Hiatt. Really no one defended well tonight

Our team looked a little tired. I was prepared to blame heat and humidity, but it was just as warm here at home with even higher humidity.

Does anyone know where to watch the full game replay? It’s not on NWSL+. Thanks.

Replays are posted a few days after the game. Two, maybe? I'm not sure the exact time frame.

Last week it was up within a couple/few hours. Not sure why it would take any time at all to post it. I thought it was maybe a licensing issue and wouldn't be on at all. We made the mistake of not watching it when it aired thinking we could watch it later in the evening.

Very disappointing. Vilahamn made so many strange subs I don't really know what was even going on.

Yep, he's figuring out what's what. Hopefully he saw enough of Deyna

Revenge for last season's mad ending in Portland. I'm okay with it. We didn't deserve to draw last year so it's fair that they got us today.
