Orlando Pride Show Potential Plans for Olympics Absences

The Orlando Pride ended a tough week atop of the NWSL after playing three games in seven days. However, the team now enters an important stretch in which it loses three key starters due to the Olympics. But the last two games have provided a glimpse as to what can be expected from the Pride while those players are in Tokyo.

The women’s soccer tournament of this year’s Summer Olympics will kick off on July 21. Four Pride players will represent their countries in the tournament: Alex Morgan for the United States, Marta for Brazil, Ali Riley for New Zealand, and Erin McLeod as an alternate for Canada.
