San Diego Wave FC will look to end a double-game week on a high when they take on the North Carolina Courage for the first time, Sunday in Cary, North Carolina.
San Diego lost their first game of the regular season on Wednesday, 1-0 at Racing Louisville. Savannah DeMelo’s unstoppable free kick was the difference, and the lineup rotations and perhaps the absence of head coach Casey Stoney due to COVID leaving Wave FC just that little bit flat and unable to summon a goal of their own. I didn’t think they would be invincibles, and even though it was a loss, the performance wasn’t abject, just not quite good enough on the road.
