After a ten-day break and a victory in the Women’s Cup, OL Reign regained the championship. Thanks to a late goal from Megan Rapinoe, the Seattle club won the three points (1-2) in Orlando.
She was the last franchise not to have crossed swords with theOL Reign in this season of NWSL. After the 90 minutes, Orlando would certainly have liked the wait to last a little longer in view of the scenario of the match. After a ten-day break, the North American women’s championship was back overnight from Friday to Saturday for OL Reign and it was a continuation of the last two weeks. On the lawn of Orlando Pride, the players of Laura Harvey signed a new success (2-1), admittedly acquired in pain, which allows them to go back to 4th place in the standings, one point from the lead.
Rapinoe saves OL Reign
Already victorious in Gotham under the eyes of Les Fenottes two weeks ago, OL Reign have a second success in a row and are surfing on their title acquired during the Women’s Cup a few days ago. But how hard it was… Led to the score following a goal from Dougherty (37th), Seattle players had to rely on Megan Rapinoe. The American star (37) was in the oven and in the mill during the second period, allowing his team to leave Florida with the three points. She first served Bethany Balcer for the equalizer just before the hour mark (56th) before playing the saviors. In the additional time of the match, the Ballon d’Or 2019 came to crucify McLeod at close range (90th + 2) on a cross from Huerta and released his own. Next meeting for OL Reign on September 10 with the reception of Chicago.
