The Orlando Pride (4-3-4, 16 points) fell 2-1 to the Portland Thorns (6-3-1, 19 points) in a game they were never really in. The Thorns dominated the game but failed to convert on most of their chances.
The Pride displayed the most unique back four so far this season. With Phoebe McClernon recovering from an injury and Ali Riley with New Zealand for the Olympics, Amy Turner and Kylie Strom received their first starts for the Pride. Other than those two changes, the lineup was pretty much as expected.
The first half hour of the game was all Portland, with the Pride unable to maintain any possession.
