Rodriguez, Kerr goals give Sky Blue FC 2-1 win over Spirit

Raquel Rodriguez and Sam Kerr scored a goal each for Sky Blue FC (3-3-4, 13 points) to lift the team 2-1 over the host Washington Spirit (5-2-2, 17 points) on Saturday, June 25.

Both goals were the players’ firsts of the season and were assisted by Leah Galton, giving her three assists in four matches played this season.

In a game that seemed the exact opposite of the two teams’ first match, a 1-2 home loss for SBFC, Sky Blue struck early and dominated play for the majority of the game.

"We were delighted with the result, although our performance was a little bit patchy at times," Sky Blue FC Head Coach Christy Holly said in a statement.
