Mistake after mistake haunted the Orlando Pride Sunday. Sam Kerr pounced, delivering a hat trick during the Chicago Red Star’s 3-2 win over Orlando.
Kerr wasted no time scoring in her first game back from the FIFA Women’s World Cup, jumping on a poor back pass to Pride goalkeeper Haley Kopmeyer and scoring in the seventh minute to give Chicago an early 1-0 lead.
In the 22nd minute, Chioma Ubogagu scored a similar goal, intercepting a slow Emily Boyd back pass to the Red Stars’ keeper and easily scoring on an empty net to level the game at 1-1.
