First things first: the most important thing you need to know about this game was that the pre-kickoff lineup announcements were set to music from Star Wars.
Did this have anything to do with our interview with Rory Dames earlier in the week? Who’s to say.
In somewhat less important news, the Chicago Red Stars came back from a tough road trip and got back on their stride with a 2-1 win over the Orlando Pride.
And they got this win in characteristic Red Stars fashion— strong defending and Christen Press working some magic.
