The last that we saw of the NC Courage they were beating the Portland Thorns and capping off a historic NWSL season in which they won a double - technically a treble depending on how you feel about the ICC. In 24 games in the regular season, the Courage lost just once, with six draws. They only allowed 17 goals all year while scoring a torrid 53 of their own. On the way to winning the NWSL Championship, the team also won the first ever Women’s International Champions Cup - beating UEFA Champions League winners Lyon in the final.
