San Diego Wave FC will head up to Providence Park for the second time in 2022, when they face the Portland Thorns in NWSL regular season play on Saturday night.
Wave FC are coming off a big win last weekend, a 3-1 defeat of the Houston Dash to close out their tenure at Torero Stadium. While red-hot Ebony Salmon gave Houston an early lead, credit to San Diego for getting in gear and coming back for the win. Alex Morgan scored her 50th NWSL regular season goal, Amirah Ali had the winner, and Sofia Jakobsson notched her debut goal in the league to wrap up the three points.
