There were a lot of mixed feelings about the Portland Thorns game Saturday night against the Chicago Red Stars, so I figured I’d break the game down and look at some highs and lows.
Now, I like to start with the cons so that we can finish with the pros:
- The Thorns didn’t seem as calm and collected as the Thorns typically do. I feel like they were reacting to the Red Stars' high press and because of that, it felt like they were scrambling when they had time on the ball.
