NWSL: Week 5 power rankings – Courage holding on to top spot

Orlando Pride were the only NWSL club to earn all three points over the weekend. Their 1-0 victory over visitors Houston Dash saw the Florida club earn their first win of the season. It was the second consecutive defeat for the Dash.

North Carolina Courage earned a point at home against Utah Royals after going down a goal in the second half. They remain undefeated this season and have proven to be a resilient side. Merritt Mathias produced one of the top goals of the NWSL season for the Courage in this match.

The Portland Thorns were unable to close the gap on the Courage as they drew the Washinton Spirit at Providence Park.
