OL Reign v Sky Blue FC
Before the game both teams kneeled during the National Anthem while wearing Black Lives Matter t-shirts to show their support towards the movement. This game was very back and forth with amazing shots and saves from both teams but neither team was able to score. So you probably saw this coming but the final score was 0-0.
