The return of a fully fit Mallory Pugh was essential to the Red Stars’ 4-0 victory on Saturday night. Pugh was involved in all four Red Stars’ goals and played a pivotal role in the much-needed win for Chicago.
The Red Stars started the game hot, with Mallory Pugh opening the scoring in just the 3rd minute of play. Wingback, Bianca St-Georges, played a beautiful ball over the top to pick out the on-running Pugh. She was able to bring the ball down before driving into the box and finishing masterfully. The Red Stars continued to push and scored the second just 15 minutes later.
