2019 NWSL Championship will be in Cary, NC on October 27th

On Wednesday afternoon, the National Women’s Soccer League finally announced where the 2019 Championship Game would be held, and the league picked Sahlen’s Stadium at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, NC! It was widely rumored before the official announcement that the league was deciding between a match in North Carolina or in Utah at Rio Tinto Stadium; the home of Utah Royals FC. There are many factors that might have influenced the decision to award the game to North Carolina, but the Courage have a lot of work to do if they want to earn a home championship game, let alone a home semifinal.
