So, not a particularly thrilling 90 minutes of soccer. The Red Stars needed a win to clinch a playoff spot and could only manage a draw. Not the worst result, and it sets them up to nail it down next week, but this is definitely a missed opportunity.
We’re going with Alyssa Naeher for our WOTM this week. When your attackers can’t make anything happen, you need your goalkeeper to have a great day, and Naeher did just that. Some real heroics late in the game made sure that the Red Stars got out of Kansas City with a point.
Now let us know how you saw it. Vote for your choice for WOTM in the poll below. The poll will be open for two days, after which we’ll publicize the results. (Note: if you’re viewing this post from AMP or Apple News, you won’t see the poll below. Feel free to tell us your pick in the comments.)
