So many Summit mistakes on Kansas City’s 2nd goal but Abby Smith got to the ball BEFORE Hopkins and the ball still ended up in the back of the net… yeeesh, she’ll want that one back.

For years the Chicago Stars leadership have subjected their fans to miserable soccer. Can Vlatko bring hope and reverse the club’s fortunes? We sat down with the (now) ebullient @lesleyryder.bsky.social to discuss.

Since 2016, no team has ever played with only 9 players in the first half of an #NWSL regular season match. The Utah Royals out here breaking all kinds of records. #UTAvLA | #AngelCityFC | #URFC

Since the Thorns went 2-0 ahead in the 28th minute: Orlando: .31 xG on 6 shots Portland: 0 xG on 0 shots Kind of a mixed bag (conceding lots of bad shots) but if the 2nd half looks like the last 17+ minutes of the 1st half, Portland might be adding to this dubious record.

"What is painfully clear... is that more dropped points await the Thorns if they are unable to tighten up their defensive holes, and an early playoff exit is imminent." @evandavissports.bsky.social discusses the Portland Thorns' defensive woes. 🔐 Sub to read! equalizersoccer.com/2026/09/17/p...

The Portland Thorns defense is one of its worst ever

Problems that began more than two years ago still persist, as illustrated by their dropped points against Chicago on Sunday

Head coach firings are all the rage in the #NWSL, and now Fabrice Gautrat joins the party. But how much difference does firing a head coach actually make? When should you do it? And ultimately, how much does a head coach actually matter? Find out on this week's episode!

Normally clubs across US leagues, when setting up press conferences for already-announced major news, give at least a day's notice. The Chicago Stars gave media a lead time of 19 minutes for today's presser with Vlatko.

Angel City picked up three critical points off their nearest playoff rivals at home over the Seattle Reign. Now, they go on the road to Utah, Washington, Gotham and Denver. Job far from done. Score: 3 - 1 Non-penalty xG: 0.95 - 0.4 Quality Chances*: 1 - 1 Field Tilt: 43 - 57 #NWSL | #LAvSEA

Angel City fans, do yourself a favor, savor the night and definitely don’t look at the schedule ahead… (Away team listed 2nd)

Portland Thorns have dropped 21 points from a winning position. Shocking. h/t @katiesimons24.bsky.social

Jenna Bike shoots from 30 yards out, the ball dribbles into Macca Arnold’s hands but hey, 28th minute and Chicago have a shot on target. It took the Spirit 60 minutes to record a SOT earlier today… so again… moral victory 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🤷🏻‍♂️

It was a Maitane own goal (yes, we expected it), so I guess technically the Thorns haven’t scored yet, which feels like… still not a moral victory for Chicago.

I did a lap around the stadium and Coliseum (and up Figueroa) at about 9:45pm to see if they'd relocated. No sign of 'em. Here's hoping they got whiny and decided to go piss in their own food instead of kidnap people.

Hi everyone. I walked in all the spots where ICE was seen, but I was unable to get photos. Their vehicles were not at the blue or orange lot by the time I got outside. I'm really mad about it, but mostly glad people are safe.

Getting word from friends at the game that while local defense is on the ground, ICE is close by the museum and near BMO so please please please be safe and don’t walk alone, walk in groups, and also go up to sunset deck if you need to wait to leave. #acfc

My understanding is people are being told to stay in stadium for now. No presser for me, going to follow my own advice and get home without incident. Hearing they are by museum, near BLUE LOT. Will update with any more information.

Please stay frosty, watch your 6, and protect loved ones and strangers alike as you exit BMO Stadium tonight. As always, fuck ICE.

Angel City had a big call go their way at home! They needed it, too, as they battled from 3-1 down to settle for a point against the Denver Summit. Score: 3 - 3 Non-penalty xG: 2.5 - 1.3 Non-penalty xG per Shot: 0.17 - 0.14 Quality Chances*: 4 - 3 Field Tilt: 57 - 43 #AngelCityFC | #LAvDEN | #NWSL
