Trinity Rodman made her Washington Spirit debut one to remember

The goal was special to Rodman because, despite the 4-1 score line (Rodman scored a brace), it was a physically demanding match. In fact, to score it she had to fight off two defenders during her forty-yard dribble into the box which was capped off by a hop to maintain her balance and shoot into the far side netting.
Just five minutes into her professional debut this weekend, she scored a new favorite.
