While some teams in the NWSL carried on with their regular season matches, OL Reign took a detour this week to compete in this year’s edition of The Women’s Cup competition held in Louisville, Kentucky.
After pulling off a comeback victory on Wednesday over Mexican side Club América in their semifinal, OL Reign met their NWSL counterparts in the final, the competition host Racing Louisville, who were also defending champions of the tournament. After conceding first in the first half, OL Reign had another comeback in them and scored two goals in the second half to become the 2022 Women’s Cup Champions.
