Hi everyone! We hope your week is going well. In this blog we will be writing about the NWSL games from May first to May third! These are the last game before the NWSL Challenge Cup final! Let's get to it!
North Carolina Courage v Orlando Pride

Gotham FC v Racing Louisville FC
This game was very back and forth. Like very back and forth. Each team took a ton of shots but with no one able to put the ball in the back of the net and defense being strong for both teams, the game ended in a 0-0 tie.
Houston Dash v Portland Thorns
Portland was taking lots of shots, but not able to score. As half time was coming it was looking like the half was going to end scoreless but after playing the long ball and crossing the ball into the box. Shea Groom got on the end of it and scored a beautiful upper 90 goal! Portland wasn't just going to lay down and die though. In the 77th minute Simone Charley was able to cross the ball into the box where Christine Sinclair got on the end of it and shoot into the lower right corner of the goal! Both teams fought hard but with no one else able to score the game ended in a 1-1 tie.
Kansas City v OL Reign
This was a fun game to watch. Kansas City came out strong from the beginning. In the sixth minute Mallory Weber scored a beautiful upper right corner goal! It was a beautiful goal. The score was now Kansas City 1, OL Reign 0. There were a few more shots but neither team was able to score again until the 34th minute. Jessica Fishlock from OL Reign scored a penalty kick into the bottom left corner! She tied up the game! Neither team was able to score for the rest of the half. Neither team was able to score again until the 84th when Celia Jimenez scored a beautiful header, putting OL Reign up 2 to 1! The final score was OL Reign 2, Kansas City 1.
