In what was a much longer affair than expected, NJ/NY Gotham FC fell to the Houston Dash 2-1, snapping their unbeaten run at four games. WAFCON winner Michelle Alozie scored the winner in stoppage time, almost four and a half hours after the match had originally started.
This loss means that Houston won the season series against Gotham after drawing 0-0 earlier in the year in Texas. The loss also means Gotham is yet to win since the summer break ended, despite doing enough in both this and the last game against the Washington Spirit to deserve a win.
