OL Reign Draws 1-1 to the North Carolina Courage After Dropping to Ten Players

Pre-Match Notes: This isn’t going to be an easy match for OL Reign. Much like the Portland Thorns, the Courage is another midfield and attack-focused team. They like having possession, they like pressing with their attack, and they’re pretty sneaky with their passes, touches, and through balls behind the backline.

USWNT Wins 2-0 Against South Africa in Game Two Friendly

Pre-Match Notes: When it comes to this second friendly, I can imagine that this is going to be a harder match than the first. South Africa is aware of how the US is going to play. Something South Africa could do is lock down their defense and just focus on counterattacking and transitions. If that’s the case, the US backline and defense is needing to … Continue reading USWNT Wins 2-0 Against South Africa in Game Two Friendly

Orlando Pride Dramatic 2-1 Win Against the North Carolina Courage

Line Up/Pre-Match Notes: 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. We have Carly Nelson in the goal. For defenders Haley McCutcheon, Rafaelle, Emily Madril, and Kylie Strom. For midfielders, Jordyn Listro, Mikayla Cluff, and Marta. For forwards Adriana, Julie Doyle, and Ally Watt. It’s a good lineup. I definitely understand starting Cluff instead of Abello for this one.
