fun fact: that was the first playoff game ever held at audi field that did not go into extra time

well maybe not a fun fact for portland

#NWSL

The only way to keep big stars in the #nwsl is to grow the league so teams can spend more and the salary cap can rise.

One of the worst balls played to the goalie by Hiatt I have ever seen.

I don't know what McCall said this time but if it's anything like the time she said Trinity Rodman doesn't defend or assist then I don't know what she expected

In the last calendar year Spirit have been in three penalty kick shootouts.

Spirit have converted 10 out of 10 kicks.

Aubrey Kingsbury has stopped 8 of 11 kicks.

Second cutest thing i've ever seen in my life: andi sullivan running to collect aubrey for the group photo and running back with her hand in hand...then doing the same thing with gift

*first* cutest thing i've ever seen in my life: at one point in the first half sofia cantore went all out for a ball, missed, and stayed collapse with head in hands on the ground. gift monday knelt down next to her and gave her a soft consolatory head butt

#NWSL #ThatsTheSpirit

Thoughts on the game (which I just got back from...I left for this game at 8am 😭)

1. jesus christ spirit do you not care about our blood pressure

2. at a certain point, one has to wonder if it's something about aubrey that's making people take terrible PKs somehow

3. spirit defenders took 100% of the PKs and sank 100% of the PKs

4. if one Louisville player had to sink their PK I'm so glad it was boats

5. pretty worried about gabby and tara, we can't lose both

#NWSL #ThatsTheSpirit

What’s frustrating is that CBS could have these Saturday games in primetime…their schedule has an NCIS:Origins rerun and 48 Hours. #NWSL

Jesus christ Marta
