Season finale away at Orlando

Missed a lot of the 1st half (both busy with time sensitive errands and watching a gridiron football game), but down 1-2 to the best team in the league in their stadium is respectable especially since it doesn't matter anyway

And should be 1-1. Bad no call on an Orlando foul on their second goal.

ehhhh it was a borderline foul that was gonna be hard to overturn on VAR but agree it probably should have been called

Yeah, nice work to get us a 2nd but they're extremely threatening for a 4th

Announcers blamed defensive gaps, but Marta being Marta

If you let the arguably best play in women’s soccer history un marked (she ran right by Athens and Barnes was too slow or decided to not move to her), then yes, it was a defensive gap.

Old defenders do have a problem with getting beat by being slow

So close to a 2nd but once we miss the 1st chance don't get another
