It was all going so well for the Chicago Red Stars. On the verge of a historic winning streak, the Red Stars lose to Sky Blue FC, a team that, up until their win earlier in the season, had not won a single match against the Red Stars in NWSL. Now, two of their three wins on the season have come against what is still arguably the best team in the league.
The Chicago Red Stars seemed off in the first half, looking to playa more counter-attacking style. While Sky Blue had an unsettling amount of possession in the final third, the Red Stars had the better chances at goal.
