Tactical Analysis: The San Diego Wave’s historic win over Angel City (1-0)

Moving into a new home is always a momentous occasion. However, when you can move into a new home while being accompanied by 32,000 of your friends and capping it off with a victory, then it becomes an even more special occasion. Last Saturday, San Diego Wave FC were able to do exactly that.

And best of all, they did so by beating their cross-freeway rivals, Angel City FC. Here’s a look at how San Diego were able to make this special occasion happen.

The Formations

San Diego Wave (4-3-3): Sheridan; Girma, Dahlkemper, Westphal, McNabb; Kornieck, Van Egmond, Shaw; Jakobsson, Doniak, Morgan

Angel City FC (4-4-2): Harau010diu0107; Riley, Nielsen, Reid, Spencer; Weatherholt, Endo, Roccaro; Le Bihan, McCaskill, Emslie
