Unbeaten Orlando Pride clinches 1st NWSL Shield

The Orlando Pride clinched their first National Women's Soccer League Shield at home on Sunday with a 2-0 win over the second-place Washington Spirit at Inter&Co Stadium.

Pride playmaker and captain Marta scored from the penalty spot in the 56th minute before Orlando midfielder Adriana saw her shot deflected for a Spirit own goal in the 73rd minute.

The Pride remain unbeaten through 23 games. No team has ever finished an NWSL season unbeaten. The Shield is the first trophy of any kind for the Orlando Pride.
