“There’s no great love out there for the Dash” said James Clarkson, as he jovially nestled into his chair during the OL Reign post-match press conference. Well James, there was no great love.
In just two matches the Dash have gone from perennial misfits to tournament scene stealers. All over the world NWSL neutrals and soccer thirsty first time viewers are doting on the women in orange. And why wouldn’t they? Titanic music, an ever-evolving slew of stan accounts, Michael Jordan graphics, back-heels, ecstatic celebrations, alternate angles, hang time, team BBQs, guile, enthusiasm, skill, technique and of course goals.
