Laura Harvey returned to the club where she spent her time between 2013 and 2017 for the first time, although this time around with a new club. A defensive mistake however would mean that she and her players would leave without any points.
Before kickoff, the match already endured an odd occurrence with the scoreboard breaking and thus becoming obsolete. For the first half both teams seemed to be on a similar level and playing a similar attacking oriented style. Samantha Johnson picked up the games first yellow card in the 12th minute and consequently will miss the next game against the Orlando Pride.
