FULL HIGHLIGHTS: Washington Spirit vs Portland Thorns FC

those two Front Runners are Smith and Turner looking a stretch our referee is Greg doka and we are underway in Washington with Mata trying to find the Run of hatch intercepted though by spanst oh what an interesting Evolution as we're going to see Smith with an excellent turn now Smith looking for support she's on her own at the moment it's seia Smith one a one and the save by Kingsbury a crucial here Courtney Brown play by hubly as far as Sullivan hatch hatch with a strike resered goalkeeper Nicole barnhard on the bench today and former studio art major at Stanford she's provided the merchandise Santos comes forward a clever ball for hatch oh is so close from quasi cleared off the line and still the danger now averted by sigita but that was so so close for the spirit Sam coffee clearing off the line what would surely have been the opening goal well it all starts with a run from Lacy Santos and this is why hatching the starting lineup on that left hand side is so important because she knows the moments when to tuck inside but she can also be threatening in behind as well laa Santos starts it part of the team in her first cap but we call the the snow angels in Utah snowy game celebration everybody fell to their their backs did the snow angels but that seems lifetimes to go at this point in time but all the the love and credit to Alex Morgan for what she's put into this game indeed Santos has sent quasi away H wants it oh and in the center he's hatching space agonizingly wide this should be entering the match number two Trinity Rodman Olivia malry to take it for the Portland Thorns oh sabrun threatening from the header coming flying in there picked up by Smith while she fed going for goal and it was spilled initially by Kingsbury and still it's in the back of the net but the referee had already blown his whistle it will not count the cup games that you've already mentioned just disruption in terms of getting that c it back you get mtry last few games after being out for a considerable time due to injury as well he hatched for the spirits oh it's quasi it's quasi denied by McKenzie Arnold little half chance there from Sophia Smith but because of he h sugita in the Midfield getting on the ball starting to dictate play more goes for goal herself perhaps k wasn't expecting that one but Smith is lurking Santos has spotted that particular danger Reyes swings it in Away by mikon far as Hubley look at the balance from Sophia Smith looking to get the shot away in order to to be able to break down defense that one's just floated in but with hatch on the field she can play back to goal via Target forward Smith does really well to Rob brel and Smith going for goal as usual as she tends to do whether it's right foot left foot but Dill is certainly going to be one of those players that drops in a little bit deeper helps keep possession will float in that space right in front of that backline of the Washington Spirit R Reyes with a bit between her teeth and now here spaner clever ball back for maltry looking to try and turn and curl it and it's back to spaner the recent signing from Kansas City current Into the Danger area on the first goal has come from H [Applause] sigita and it's the Thorns so in need of some points who've drawn First [Music] Blood well we talked so much about H sigita and how important she's been to this Portland Thorns team throughout her time but also more specifically this game in particular doing what's needed defensively doing what's needed offensively gets all of it tugs it into the far post maltry with a free kick nodded on by SAU Brun on the header by dequilla the sub NI Range straight at [Applause] Kingsbury and Coffey beaten to it by Sullivan her International teammate interception by sabron H's there soing Rodman oh Rodman does so well and McKenzie Arnold pounces eventually to deny hatch here come the Thorns once again maltry who helped in the buildup to that goal now Reyes finds maltry in a promising position tipped over by Kingsbury what a game we have on our hands now as Rodman finds himself in a little bit of space up against Reyes now quasi the play on [Applause] quasi and that's a simle cast beginning at 8 Eastern on cbssn Paramount Plus Prime ESPN 2 and nwsl plus so basically every channel that you try to turn over to you will find the face of Alex Morgan whether she's in the stands or on the field which she will be at some stage now here's Rodman sent on the way by hatch Trinity Rodman it's still Rodman can she finish of course she can you didn't doubt her did you Rodman brings the magic at Audi field well it's why she's one of the best in the game she doesn't need a ton of opportunities it starts with a turnover well done for mckone to step in and even better from Ashley Hatch just to peel draw the defender of Becky sabrun that allows for Rob and Min to get faced up a little bit deeper she can play that one big ball into the path of Morris and look how high and much territory they've been able to regain CL oh Morris is in here Arnold with the save and still the danger not averted and Rodman there but got a strike all wrong that time looking to extend their 19 game unbeaten run going back to the last game of last season Krueger fors first time for Morris oh is come to aan oh she didn't quite expect it to come to her in that moment looking for taquilla it's Away by Mata he touch from quasi to get around hubly and quasi is awayi with a strike try and find a feet in the nwsl but it's taking a little bit of time Lori yeah and I think it's also just the the mix of players that they have in the Midfield as well here's Mata up from the right back position into quasi gets a finish all wrong Lacy Santos does well to get herself out of the pressure in those moments but in the overall picture of this Washington spear that's when you miss Cory Bon because she is made for those moments picks up space in between the and then his electric Sinclair finds Smith the flag stay down for now Sophia Smith looking for taquilla how unlucky can you get D ni Cole this time it's just Sophia Smith tucked in a little bit more gets her head up sees Dilla being able to beat her player and just goodness will the Thorns be left to rud that glorious opportunity Dilla had just a few moments ago into the 90th minute and the strike from McKenna now here's Dilla who's looked busy since coming off the bench Dilla she need some support and she has it in Smith Sinclair the flag goes up and it won't count lovely moved by the Thorns though it's a clear off side you can just see it in the Run of play as well but Dill for the next couple of minutes that remain of stoppage time mat carrying the ball B an awful long way Rodman up against Reyes gets the better of her this time and they've done it it's lacy Santos right to the death for Washington Spirit to be able to receive this ball her mat looking to combine and then just finding a little separ ation right there lofting it into the runners coming in instead of looking for the cut back ball realizes that Santos is unmarked inside the box and then L Lacy Santos what a signing this is for the Washington Spirit her second goal other end we wondered at the time whether that one for Dilla would be costly when the ball cannon off the back of the bar and it is three defeats in a row for the Thorns but Joy
