The Houston Dash closed out the 2020 NWSL Fall Series with their third consecutive win, defeating the Orlando Pride 2-1 tonight at Osceola County Stadium.
With the win, the Dash finish the Fall Series with a 3-1-0 record and nine points, guaranteeing them at least a top-two finish in the Verizon NWSL Community Shield and at least a $15,000 grant for the NAACP of Houston. If the Portland Thorns draw or lose on Saturday night versus OL Reign, the Dash would clinch the Community Shield and increase the grant earnings for NAACP Houston to $25,000.
The Dash opened the scoring in the 13th minute through two familiar faces – midfielders Kristie Mewis and Shea Groom.
