The Orlando Pride playoff sights are currently on the outside looking in after a 3-0 loss to the North Carolina Courage on Sunday morning. With Chicago up a point and having a game in hand, it appears that the Pride have a very real possibility of failing to earn their second consecutive playoff appearance.
Through injuries and international dates, the Pride and Sermanni have struggled throughout the season to put together a consistent season of results. At only one point this season has the Pride won consecutive matches. You have to go all the way back two months and realize it was against the bottom two teams in the table (Sky Blue FC and the Washington Spirit).
