Washington Spirit suffer 3-1 loss to Kansas City Current

The Kansas City Current handed Washington Spirit their biggest loss of the season with a 3-0 defeat Sunday evening at Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City.

After a solid start for both teams, Kansas City dominated the first half, putting the ball into the back of the net 5 times — although 2 were called offside — controlling the pace of play, and forcing turnovers in the midfield that kept the Spirit on the defensive.

The Current’s first goal came in the 18th minute when Kate Del Fava sent a long ball from the corner of the field to Lo’eau LaBonta just outside the box.
