Good morning!

I think I've developed a weird superstition about playing against Racing Lou; the week before I often find myself wondering what will go wrong.
Is it just me?

Talk about whatever you want. This is an ideal thread for you to make general inquiries about things that are commonly asked, like how is the shade on the East stand at 3pm? Or where are the ADA bathrooms? As well, low effort posts can be directed here as comments in order to keep sub organized and conversation centralized for other users. Consider this the Town Square, or AngelCityFC Reddit's very own Starbucks, but without the union busting.

NWSL League Watch - 7/10-12

9 Upvotes

Match Week 13 7/10-12 (all times Pacific)

Which games will you be watching? Other than ACFC vs SD I’m interested in Orlando/KC and Utah/Gotham.

What are your predictions? Scores, reds, yellows, which players get G+A? 

Overall W-L-D record for each team is followed by 5-match form (old-new L-to-R), e.g. “San Diego 3-2-1 WWLDW.” Form only includes league games, within that time frame Gotham and Washington both played in Concacaf Champions Cup; and Gotham and KC both played in Challenge Cup.

Home Away Field Date/ Time Where to watch Notes
Orlando, 5-6-2 LLWWL KC, 8-5-0 WLWWW Inter&Co Fri 5pm Prime I would simply like to note that ACFC handed KC the only L in their last five. Croix Bethune had a really good game last weekend. If no Banda again, my bets are on KC.
Louisville, 2-9-1 WLLLL Bay, 3-6-3 DLLLD Lynn Family Fri 5pm NWSL+ LOU struggled with a lot of injuries last week, plus the public announcement of Emma Sears’ transfer request may have shaken up the locker room. Neither team in particularly good form, but I do like Bev Yanez and hope the team can pull out a result at home for her.
Boston, 2-7-4 WDLLD Chicago,3-10-0 LLLLW  Centreville Bank Fri 5pm NWSL+ CHI coming off a remarkable 3-2 home upset against UTA last week will be looking for more goals. BOS squeezed out a home draw vs BAY last week & will be hoping to get 3 table points this time around.
Utah, 7-3-3 DWWDL Gotham, 6-3-3 WDWWL America First 🤢 Fri 7pm Victory+ UTA have been a team of two halves (of the season). Can they string together a more complete season? They were missing key players in Mina Tanaka and Kaleigh Riehl last week in their late upset loss to CHI. GFC lost 0-2 to SD on the back of a Mel B golazo (seriously, go watch that goal if you haven’t yet) for the first and AKB playing a super high line and getting beat for the second. I think they can both bounce back, but those were tough losses for teams who’ve been dominant all season. This game might be scrappy!
NC, 6-3-3 LWWWW Washington, 7-2-3 WWLWW WakeMed Sat 3:30pm ION Perfect must-watch warmup for us west coasters getting ready for the late game. NC showed they can do it without Manaka last week, dunking on SEA 3-1 after an early goal against. WAS had late Rodman heroics win them a game vs HOU 2-1 that shouldn’t really have been that close. NC are historically better at home, so maybe they can take at least a point out of this one.
San Diego, 9-4-1 WDLWW ACFC, 5-6-1 DWLLW Snapdragon Sat 5:45pm ION SD’s defense looks really good this year, conceding fewer than one goal per match (0.93) on average. ACFC sits at 1.17 for that number. Both teams are scoring at the same rate, 1.50 goals/match, and SD had Dudinha for most of the season so far to boost those numbers. Ludmila’s finishing woes continued last week against GFC, missing a shot from a decent angle on an open net. In short: keep smoking that hopium, ACFC fans. In Sveindis we trust.
Seattle, 4-6-2 LLWLL Portland, 8-3-3 DWLDW Lumen  Sun 1pm ESPN/ESPN app Mid-afternoon Cascadia rivalry, need I say more? Hopefully there are fewer red cards in this one than the last one (recommend watching if you missed it!). POR have a scary attack already and are planning to bring back Hanks and Weaver from SEI soon... this is simply greed. SEA looked not great against NC after the first fifteen minutes, but we can hope they put up a bit more fight at home for a rivalry game, despite not have a Sophia Wilson, Olivia Moultrie, or Pietra Tordin-esque goalscorer anywhere on their team.
Denver, 4-5-3 WWLWL Houston, 4-7-2 LDWLL DSG Sun 4pm Victory+ Mid-table matchup. With Kiki van Zanten back from injury, HOU have one of their main scoring threats available. However, with Robbe still and Faasse now out there’s not much in the way of another striker/true forward to pair her with. Rookies Ullmark and Rader have been carrying their weight in the midfield with a few goals each. But the three of them may still not be enough to break down former Dash teammates Delanie Sheehan & Yazmeen Ryan in the midfield plus the normally solid Kaleigh Kurtz/Eva Gaetino CB pair. I think Denver’s bench is just enough deeper that they will likely carry this. Also, the altitude.

League Watch - 7/24-26

Match Week 15 7/24-26 (all times Pacific)

Okay folks, here are my non-ACFC Games To Watch: 

  • Bay vs Houston - Kennedy Fuller goal very possible
  • Portland vs Gotham - Could get to see Portland lose at Providence #rare
  • Boston vs KC - We are rooting for Boston on this one because a) we love a dog and b) it would be good for ACFC in the standings if Boston win

Which games will you be tuning in for? What are your predictions? Starting lineups? Scores, reds, yellows, which players get G+A? 

Overall W-L-D record for each team is followed by 5-match form (old-new L-to-R), e.g. “San Diego 3-2-1 WWLDW.” Form only includes league games, within that time frame Gotham and KC both played in Challenge Cup.

Home Away Field Date/ Time Where to watch Notes
Orlando, 6-8-2 WLWLL Chicago, 3-12-0 LLWLL Inter&Co Fri 5pm Victory+ With Jordyn Huitema placed on SEI, who will CHI use as their #9 for the rest of the season? Marta is back with ORL after an excused absence for the men’s WC final last weekend. Both teams will hope to put together a strong performance after two consecutive losses.
Houston, 4-7-4 WLLDD Bay, 5-6-3 LLDWW Shell Energy Fri 5pm Victory+ Coming off the break, BAY drew BOS 2-2 and then had shutout multigoal wins against LOU and NC. They face a HOU team struggling to hold onto points from winning position, after giving up goals to WAS for an L, then DEN and LOU for two draws.
Portland, 8-5-3 LDWLL Gotham, 9-3-3 WLWWW Providence Fri 7pm Prime POR have been good at home but recently their defense has been regressing to the mean from a very overperforming run before the break, can a hot GFC take advantage even with no Jordynn Dudley? Also maybe we get Sam Kerr’s first start since rejoining NWSL.
Boston, 4-8-4 LDWWL KC, 8-6-1 WWWLD Centreville Bank Sat 2pm ION BOS only loss since the break was against WAS. They beat ORL on the same field where KC lost to ORL. BOS did just have a three game week but they’ll also be at home. Watch the Laney Rouse/Nichelle Prince matchup if it happens, that’ll be a fun one along with Michelle Cooper vs either Lilly Reale or Emerson Elgin on the other end.
NC, 6-5-3 WWWLL Utah, 8-4-3 WDLLW WakeMed Sat 4:45pm ION No Manaka, some problems for NC in the past few weeks. Ashley Sanchez is under a lot of pressure to make goals happen. UTA look better with Kaleigh Riehl back available, but miss the speed of Janni Thomsen joining in the attack since she was traded to LCL. They did extend former ACFC player Miyabi through 2028, which is great for Miyabi and *congrats happy for you meme* at the team.
San Diego, 9-5-2 LWWLD Seattle, 5-7-2 WLLWL Snapdragon Sun 2pm CBSSN West Coast best coast and all that. SEA shocked POR 2-0 in the 2nd Cascadia rivalry game of the season and then managed to score ANOTHER two against GFC the following week, even though they ended up losing that game. Maybe Laura Harvey decided she does like scoring goals now? In all seriousness, SD has a really good defense so the “long ball to Maddie Dahlien and pray” approach needs to have some variation thrown in if they want any chance this week.
Washington, 9-3-3 WWWLW Denver, 5-5-4 LWLDW Audi Sun 4pm Victory + WAS gets one of their few home games in this tough schedule stretch, they should take advantage of it to score some table points. However they will be missing Rose Kouassi, Gift Monday, and Deb Abiodun as WAFCON kicks off this weekend. All three are key components of their attack. DEN now have Heaps on deck to captain/start as much as she’s available, too.
ACFC, 7-6-1 LLWWW Louisville, 2-10-2 LLLLD BMO Sun 6pm ESPN/ESPN Deportes/ESPN app It’s Pride Night! And the players we traded to and from LOU in the offseason are both gay? Amazing. Let’s welcome Macey Hodge back to BMO and get Ary Borges a win over her old team. Also, we will be missing Prisca for at least a few weeks while she is with the Zambia NT for WAFCON - good luck Copper Queens!

We are halfway through the season by number of games played btw! It is no longer "way too early" to start calling your end of year award picks, shield winners, etc now that we are looking at about half the data.

Score Prediction Poll: Game 15 – ACFC vs Louisville

9 Upvotes

Over 85% of you correctly predicted the win over the Stars on Saturday! This week, Louisville comes to town for a Sunday evening match at BMO.

ACFC is back above the playoff line with a 7-1-6 record. They scored 22 goals and allowed 14 goals. Angel City has three straight wins and three straight clean sheets since the break.

Racing is in last place with a 2-2-10 record. They scored 16 goals and allowed 27 goals. Racing has two losses and a draw since the break.

Kayla Fischer and Emma Sears lead Racing’s offense with 5 goal contributions each, followed by Sarah Weber and Katie O’Kane with 4 goal contributions each. Louisville has allowed 27 goals this year, which is the second worst in the league. Savannah Demelo hasn’t returned since she collapsed on the pitch last season and revealed she had Graves' disease and hyperthyroidism. Hopefully, she’ll be back soon.

SJJ and Mai lead Angel City’s attack with 7 and 6 goal contributions, respectively. Gisele and Shores have four goal contributions each from their spots on the wings. Angel City has allowed 14 goals this year, which is the third best in the league. Jun posted an IG of her and Hina lifting weights. Hopefully that means she’s on the mend, doesn’t need another surgery, and won’t lose too much time. Hina is posting some of her workouts, but she’s still navigating through the recovery journey. Hopefully Savy’s recovery is speeding along too. She looked great at the ESPYs recently.

NEXT DAY DISCUSSION Next Day Discussion: Hot Dog, Mai's on a Roll

28 Upvotes

Happy Sunday Angels! This afternoon we bring a close to a truly thrilling world cup tournament, but this morning we bask in the glow of a third Angel City win! Let's discuss.

The team played in Chicago, with Claire getting her first start, the wind off Lake Michigan howling through the microphones, and the camera seemingly being operated by a tipsy bird for much of the game. The first half was hard fought - Alozie and Chacon especially on Chicago challenged our defenders, but we held a strong line and made some lineup adjustments and handled it well. We pushed the attack with strong runs from Sveindis and Gisele, but couldn't find the last touch to score.

The second half was definitely ours - in the 56th minute there was scrum in the box, with Mallory Swanson taking out Mai's legs and Manaka immediately slashing Ary right after - ultimately the call was for the second foul, and Mai sunk the PK with ice in her veins. That's 5 goals in 5 games for Mai, her boots are lookin' pretty gold to me.

Prisca came on for Mai in the 84th minute and pretty immediately had an impact, carrying the ball up the right side and passing in for Sveindis to score a goal... that was called offsides. AGREE TO DISAGREE I GUESS. Not to be deterred, in the 98th minute the two of them ran in back, Prisca this time blowing past the defenders and coming up the left to pass across giving Sveindis an easy tap in.

A few pain points for sure - a LOT of shots over the goal, and first touch in the box needs work all around. Still some communication growth needed to ensure that passes connect. But we had some truly excellent long balls to set up transitional attacks, our defense was relentless, our attacks were quick, and Ang held it down for a third straight shutout. And postgame we got to see baby Jamie do his first tv interview with mama Claire, heart eyes everywhere, cute cute cute.

How are we feeling? Ready to face Louisville back at BMO? What should we work on? Discuss below!

Not sure about the field fam...I think we should all offer gratitude that the game wasn't streamed using a GoPro from the press box with some field shots sprinkled in, but at least the crowd mics were turned up higher than a WWE crowd booing Dom and Nick Mysterio.

Okay for the game, it was not Fra v Eng slobberknocker...thank god, not complaining, but when that many goals are scored in one single game, its better served when it doesn't involve a team you root for. Instead what we got was another steady performance, led mostly by the defense, and better aided by the attack this time, more possession, more xG, shots, etc... executed by our squad.

The first half was slightly tilted towards ACFC until the Huitema injury where the game leveled out a bit more. Sure Chacon got one that was called back, but that was also her 2nd time being called offside and it was very offsides, so we can't be worried about that, Sams and Gorden got that backline well tuned.

2nd half started off well enough after Borges either got dragged or attacked in the box, hard to tell which one the called the penalty on, but there seemed to be two fouls in the same area within milliseconds.

Chicago maybe had like five mins of momentum later in the game, but it was nothing more than a popcorn fart before Jonsdottir put the game in the refrigerator, closed the door, turned off the lights, for the eggs to cool, the butter to harden, and the jello to jiggle.

On to the next game at the Banque to take on Louisville. It is good to see the team coming together and playing for one another, but I hope this team finds a ball coach and sticks to it in time for when some good ol' fashion ball coaching and adjusting is going to be the deciding factor in an outcome. But for now, the squad has climbed into 7th place, and let us hope the can keep on climbing.

Match Hype:

Woke up early this morning and headed up the mountain top of Hype to meet with our very own YASSS QUEEN...but, I had to go the long way because it is very wet in West Hollywood right now, more than usual. There she stood in her vest, immediately turned as a approached and slapped me.

YQ: Don't be ridiculous!

S: I didn't even say anything.

YQ: I had no choice, you always ask me the same question, jump to absurd conclusions, paint outlandish pictures of the results, you start to diaperventilate, so I have to slap you and bring you back to reality. But today I don't have time for this, I have a game to watch before the game, then a movie to catch about greek mythology which likely excludes the Gods in mass but has the monsters, then I have to get ready for the big game tomorrow. So a preemptive slap is getting off easy, don't make me do any worse.

Volemos!!!

I hope you've all been properly hyped

Jun Endo is one of my favorite players in the world. I'm super heartbroken, and still traumatized from hearing her screams and cries.

Match Week 13 7/15-19 (all times Pacific)

Buckle up NWSL fans, we have a full schedule this week. With 2 midweek games and six (6!!!!) games on Saturday, let's get into the narratives. 

Transfer window is open for all games this week so any intl-league signings (Lindsey Heaps I’m looking at you!) are officially eligible to play.

QUEENS CLASSIC! SAM KERR! DENISE O’SULLIVAN! Gotham has to be cheating the cap!! Leicy Santos if you have no fans I am dead, please give us more set piece bangerz, unreal assists, and goals where you juggle the ball to yourself. That was a GOTY candidate last weekend. Rodman is a big-game girlie but so is Lavelle... who will prevail???? Also, Gotham has 2 “home” games in NYC but none in their usual home stadium. Possible this will throw them off but who knows. 

Scheduling note: both Gotham and Spirit will have 7 games in the one-month period from Jul 3-Aug 2. Gotham’s 2 “home” games this week are their only home games in that run, while Spirit will have 3 home games spread out over the month. This looks like: weekend, weekend, midweek, weekend, weekend, midweek, weekend scheduling. Both teams will no longer have any games in hand after Aug 2 match day, making the top of the table easier to assess accurately.

Speaking of the top of the table, is Utah slipping away? After losing to Chicago (inexcusable) then Gotham (fine and normal), how will they fare against Orlando (who have a midweek game and may be forced to rotate)? San Diego’s last few games have been against mostly these same opponents (Orlando L, Chicago W, Gotham W, LA L) so it’s an interesting point of compare/contrast for two teams that have led the league up to the summer break.

I am uncharacteristically recommending everyone watch a Courage game because I think Bay is finally getting their attack together (thanks in part to our dearly departed K. Fuller, but also because Pfeiffer is healthy, Lema is apparently a starter now, and their other midfielders are becoming more seasoned). This is gonna be one of those stylistic matchups where tactics might end up mattering quite a bit. Also, if Evelyn Ijeh were good she would be SO good. She has had a number of missed shots on open net/missed easy headers/missed tap ins this season. She’s getting in the right places but we often see players come in from Euroleagues and take ~6mo to settle in and start finishing at a better rate (See also: Dufour, Jonsdottir). Ijeh is nearing that mark, so keep an eye on her to either level up or get replaced pretty soon.

This post is written prior to midweek games, so there will be some stuff that’s not 100% up to date for the weekend games for those teams. 

What are your predictions? Scores, reds, yellows, which players get G+A? 

Overall W-L-D record for each team is followed by 5-match form (old-new L-to-R), e.g. “San Diego 3-2-1 WWLDW.” Form only includes league games, within that time frame Gotham and Washington both played in Concacaf Champions Cup; and Gotham and KC both played in Challenge Cup.

Home Away Field Date/ Time Where to watch Notes
Orlando, 6-6-2 LWWLW Boston, 3-7-4 DLLDW Inter&Co Wed  4pm NWSL+ Anyone want to make a side bet on a weather delay? But seriously, after beating KC in decisive fashion, ORL have got to be feeling themselves. I personally saw Marta post like seven different insta stories of her goal so I expect she will be shooting from everywhere on the pitch. Shot selection who? We don’t know her. BOS is also coming off a W, though I don’t read as much into beating CHI as I do KC.
Gotham, 7-3-3 DWWLW Washington, 8-2-3 WLWWW Citi Field Wed 5pm ESPN Theee Queens Classic. New signings, rivalry game, and who knows what chaos we might get? This will be fun for neutrals and stressful for fans. Gotham please sign a defender for real though. Jess Carter deserves a break. Spirit got a new midfielder, Ngock, from Fleury who will also be eligible. 
KC, 8-6-0 LWWWL San Diego, 9-5-1 DLWWL CPKC Fri 5pm Prime While both teams have good records this season, KC is undefeated at home. The crowd there really means a lot to the players, and the team means a lot to the city. I think they can hold on to that undefeated at home stat a little longer. Also Debinha extended *congrats happy for you meme*. Wish we coulda signed her.
Gotham, 7-3-3 + 1 game, WWLW_ Seattle, 5-6-2 LWLLW Icahn Stadium Sat 9am ABC, ESPN Deportes, ESPN app These teams lead the league in not scoring goals. No, seriously. GFC: 1.17 goals/match, SEA: 1.00 goals/match. The only teams lower? CHI (0.57), BAY (1.00), BOS (1.07), LOU (1.15). In case you didn’t know, that’s the entire bottom of the table except 13th place HOU. GFC gets away with this by having an insanely talented GK and emergency defending, keeping their goals against low (0.62/match, best in league). SEA can’t normally do that (1.23 GA/match), but they pulled it off against POR last weekend thanks to their GK2 Cassie Miller’s amazing performance. Can they do it again in an away match against not-their-rival? Will GFC be tired/rotating lineups from their midweek game? 
Denver, 4-5-4 WLWLD Portland, 8-4-3 WLDWL Centennial Sat 11am CBS/P+ POR is missing Turner for a few weeks, and still waiting on Hanks and Weaver back from SEI. This means they don’t have as much speed up top as they’re used to, just Wilson (who is excellent but does in fact need other players to pass the ball with sometimes). DEN just got Tash Flint back from injury who is their key to the midfield, pre-Heaps anyway. Janine Sonis is having a career season, putting up amazing stats in so many categories and scoring goals too. They are playing at a non-usual stadium but DEN might pull off the upset with a massive home crowd behind them.
Bay, 4-6-3 LLLDW NC, 6-4-3 WWWWL PayPal Sat 1pm CBS/P+ NC’s plan is Ashley Sanchez and hope. That did not work against WAS last weekend but it might work against BAY. However, with Alex Pfeiffer is back to slicing and dicing and Karlie Lema looking to possibly be the new starter, this might be a fun matchup. All goals no defense, big GK saves, that sort of thing.  
Chicago, 3-11-0 LLLWL ACFC, 6-6-1 WLLWW Northwestern Medicine Sat 3:30pm ION Nobody jinx this. 
Louisville, 2-10-2 LLLLL Houston, 4-7-3 DWLLD Lynn Family Sat 5pm NWSL+ Kiki van Zanten is back from injury, Avery Patterson is off yellow-card accumulation suspension, and LOU has not been competitive this season. If you need to skip a game, this is proooobably the one.
Utah, 7-4-3 WWDLL Orlando, 6-6-2 + 1 game, WWLW_ America First 🤢 Sat 5:45pm ION I do not love that ORL has to play Wed-Sat games (or GFC). There is literally time on Sunday, @ Jessica Berman. Wyd. UTA may once again be doing the thing where they can’t win without Kaleigh Riehl. Ana Tejada will be back from YC suspension though, which could help if Riehl remains on the injury list.
Boston, 3-7-4 + 1 game, LLDW_ Washington, 8-2-3 + 1 game, LWWW_ Centreville Bank Sun 4pm Victory+ BOS is tied as league leader for most draws on the season, and I think a draw is about the extent of what their ambition should be. Both teams are coming off a midweek game, and the momentum and rotation knock-on effects from those may be more impactful than any other factors. WAS losing this would still be a huge upset, they have like 3 deep starters at every position. Everyone says this about GFC, but: WAS salary cap audit is overdue.

Will only work for the first 30 players to click the link, but I’ll post a generic card in the comments.

Score Prediction Poll: Game 14 - ACFC vs Chicago

4 Upvotes

Last week only 1/3 of you predicted an ACFC win over San Diego. Will more than 1/3 of you correctly predict the outcome of the week 14 matchup in Chicago…

Angel City is in 9th place with a 6-1-6 record through 13 games. They have scored 20 goals and allowed 13 goals. The Stars are in 15th place with a 4-0-10 record through 14 games. They have scored 8 goals and allowed 28 goals. 

Angel City has one of the best defenses in the league - allowing slightly more than a goal per game. Chicago has the worst defense in the league - allowing two goals per game. Chicago is not good, but as Two Left Feet pointed out, 3 of their 4 wins are at home this year. Jordyn Huitema leads the Stats attack with 4 goals.

They played earlier in the season and ACFC won that match 4-0. Though Mallory Swanson did not play in that game.

Who will on Sat in the Windy City? Vote in the poll and discuss below.

NEXT DAY DISCUSSION Next Day Discussion: ACFC Wins, Brazilians Lead the Way, Prayers for Endo

36 Upvotes

Dare I say we are so back? No, I don't, as I believe too strongly in jinxing things - but we did look good last night, and brought home the win! That brings our all time record against the Wave to a visually satisfying 3-3-3, and keeps us well in the fight for playoffs, with our current ranking sitting at 9th with 19 points and 1-2 games in hand compared to some of the teams ranked higher.

While I was admittedly watching this on the single TV at the very loud bar that wasn't playing the Arg-Swiss world cup game and so didn't catch EVERYTHING, I thought in the first half we looked strong and confident. The second half was a little dicier for sure, but our defense stayed tight and limited the Wave to only 6 shots on target despite them having over 2/3 of the possession. Angel City goals came in from Mai Niehues in the 17th minute (bringing her to 4 in 4 games) and Ary Borges in the 26th minute, starting us out strong, and we stayed focused and held the lead for the rest of the game. Big credit to big Ang, who made 6 saves and kept us alive against the Wave's notably strong offense, and a nod of thanks to the goalpost for that PK stop.

Our midfield seems to be gelling, and I see potential in the Ally/Carina/Ary combo.

Jun Endo went down and left the field looking distraught in the 36th minute in what appeared to be a no-contact injury - we all hate to see that and hope for an update soon. As of posting admin has just said that she is being evaluated. Send her good vibes, truly knees are the worst.

We travel to Chicago next week where we can hopefully focus on possession and keep our win streak going.

Did we do pretty great considering Wave is the number 1 team, or did we grit out a win despite some weakness in possession? What should we expect and what do we hope to see in Chicago? Please discuss!

POST-MATCH SOCIAL Angel City take a solid three points in San Diego, but Jun Endo...

70 Upvotes

Angel City win two on the bounce, this one coming on the road to their rival.

The performance was fairly solid, neither team made the other suffer to much, but Angel City got the execution they needed early.

Despite the stats leaning towards San Diego, they seemed void of ideas. xG 2.57 to our 1.95 wasn't too far off, maybe the missed penalty contributed a lot to that. Possession was about 63% to our 37%...most of that in the 2nd half with San Diego chasing the game.

Anderson did manage with a solid performance, in no large part to the post, in one key moment...at least. Our defense was even more solid, that combo of Gorden and Sams seems to be our most solid choice, hope that means there is a future Savy moving forward.

The line up didnt leave too much to desire, other than Riley on the bench, wondering if Shlomo missed something, as in is she coming back from an injury, or was she just coach Strauss's player...who knows.

But Jun Endo seemed to have gotten injured again. I can not speculate how serious it was, her gait didn't seem to painful as she walked off the field, but the replay did show that it was non contact, which doesn't usually mean better or worse compared to a contact knee injury...but them are the facts. Let's hope its not serious, or lets hope its nothing at all, fingers crossed.

What are your feelings?
