Washington 0-0 Gotham: NJ/NY inches closer to Challenge Cup final

NJ/NY Gotham FC took another step towards the NWSL Spring Challenge Cup Final on Tuesday night, eeking out a 0-0 draw with the Washington Spirit.

The goalless affair was more action-filled than one would imagine for a scoreless draw. For the majority of the match the Metro side struggled to threaten the net of their I-95 rivals. Midge Purce had the best chance of the match for Gotham just six minutes in, unleashing a dart from the edge of the box that beat Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Bledsoe, but her effort struck the post and eventually was cleared out of danger.
