URFC ties Orlando in first-ever NWSL match
ORLANDO (Saturday, March 24, 2018) – Utah Royals FC (0-0-1, 1 point) settled for a 1-1 draw with the Orlando Pride in the club’s inaugural match at Orlando City Stadium on Saturday. MF Gunnhildur Jonsdottir scored the historic first goal in club history as Royals FC took the lead in the third minute, only to have a dubious penalty allow the home team to draw level midway through the first half. GK Abby Smith finished the night with two saves to preserve the draw as Utah’s defensive shape and discipline dictated the run of play.
