The Washington Spirit have battled their way through an NWSL gauntlet, finishing 1-1-1 after facing the league’s three top sides from 2019 to start the Challenge Cup. Today, however, is a different task: taking on the upstart Houston Dash in the final game for both clubs before the knockout rounds. The Dash, who have since added some experienced veterans from around the league, seem to have figured out their identity, but will be looking to bounce back from a stumble in their last game. Washington, meanwhile, will want to build after fighting back to get a draw against Portland a week ago.
