Sky Blue FC (0-2-2, 2 points) battled the North Carolina Courage (2-0-2, 8 points) for 90 minutes, and the North Carolina weather for another 90, to a scoreless draw, earning Sky Blue a valuable point on the road Saturday night.
With the result, Sky Blue remains in eighth place in NWSL standings, while the Courage drop to second play, one point behind the Utah Royals FC.
With the U.S. internationals already having reported to the team’s pre-World Cup training camp, Imani Dorsey eagerly took over the mantle for Carli Lloyd, leading Sky Blue in shots (5) and shots on goal (2).
