How the Orlando Pride Turned a Difficult Season into a Playoff Chase

The Orlando Pride used a Meggie Dougherty Howard penalty to beat San Diego Wave FC 1-0 away from home Saturday night. While it was only the fourth win of the season, it extended the team’s current unbeaten run to six games. After a tough start to the season, what has changed with this team?

It’s been a roller coaster season for the Pride. The team was previously built on international stars like Alex Morgan and Marta, but only made the playoffs in 2017. As a result, the team is undergoing a significant rebuild, led by General Manager Ian Fleming.
