The story of the match begins and ends with the unexcuseable conditions the NWSL put the players in on Saturday night. This picture of last night’s field says it all. Just take a moment to review the distance between the sideline and the box.
The head coach, the Reign players, the supporters group The Royal Guard, and many players from the league ripped into the decision to allow them to play on a field that was 100 by 58. A tough loss and potentially serious injury. There is sure to be more developments on this story in the coming weeks, but for now on to the player ratings.
