The Houston Dash weathered a 92-minute lightning delay to defeat the Orlando Pride 3-1 tonight at BBVA Compass Stadium.
A brace from FW Rachel Daly, five saves from GK Jane Campbell and FW Thembi Kgatlana’s first NWSL goal spurred the home side to victory. With the win, the Dash improve to 5-6-5 on the year and just five points away from a playoff spot. Since the beginning of May, the Dash are now 5-3-3, including a 3-1-2 mark at home over that span.
The match was suspended in the 13th minute due to lightning near the stadium.
