Leah Galton, who has troubled the Spirit recently, scored the game's only goal
The Washington Spirit failed to contain Leah Galton on Saturday night and paid the price. The Sky Blue FC rookie scored a fantastic goal that originated from a Sky Blue goal kick for the game's only tally as the Spirit fell 1-0 on the road. It was the Spirit's third loss of the season and their second loss to Sky Blue FC this year. The Spirit are still level with Portland and have a game in hand on the Thorns, while Sky Blue is now tied with the Chicago Red Stars for the fourth and final playoff spot.
