After a road trip out west, NJ/NY Gotham FC returned home and came away with a win after beating Portland Thorns FC by a score of 3-0. This was a great bounce-back win for the club after a disappointing draw away to Bay FC this past Sunday. While there were extenuating circumstances, such as fatigue, that played a role in that game, the team knew that winning against Portland was crucial to continue this incredible run of form.
Both teams entered this game tied on points, so whoever was able to come away with the three points would have been sitting in a great position at this point in the season.
