The North Carolina Courage have locked up the number one seed and with that, the Shield. With only one loss on the season, you have to give them credit where credit is due.
Individually, Lynn Williams has suddenly turned her season on its head and is hungry. She quickly climbed up to second in the league for goals scored, tied with Chicago’s Sam Kerr, after bagging a couple of braces and a hat-trick. Debinha and Dunn are right there with Williams pressuring NWSL backlines.
The Courage’s backline has allowed just 2 goals in the last 5 matches and are right behind Seattle for the fewest goals allowed.
