Sky Blue FC falls from playoff contention after draw with Orlando

Sky Blue FC earned a point against the Pride, but Western New York's draw against Boston was enough to knock the Jersey team out of the playoff race.

After a hard-fought season of overcoming the odds, Sky Blue FC was officially eliminated from the 2016 NWSL playoff race after drawing the Orlando Pride, 1-1.

The one point earned from the draw, combined with the one point the Western New York Flash picked up against the Boston Breakers, made it mathematically impossible for Sky Blue to move back into one of the top four table spots this season.
