When your team struggles to score goals, more people focus on how the defense is playing during those tough times. And a lot of people have been watching the Orlando Pride’s back line this season.
As it seems to be becoming an every week thing for the Pride, defensive issues were on display once again in their 2-1 loss to Sky Blue FC on Saturday night. After taking a 1-0 lead into the halftime break, the Pride conceded two goals in the first 10 minutes of the second half.
Pride Head Coach Tom Sermanni was not happy with the five-minute sequence of Sky Blue scoring two quick goals out of the gate in the second half.
