A busy week in which OL Reign announced two major player acquisitions, was then capped off with a Saturday night match against Angel City FC. On a day dubbed #SODOvsSOCAL, OL Reign did their part with a 1-0 victory over Angel City FC, courtesy of Bethany Balcer’s goal in the 31st minute.
Thanks to Balcer’s second goal of the NWSL regular season, OL Reign climbs to 13 points heading into the June international break.
While OL Reign started the match on the front foot and in control, it deteriorated into NWSL After Dark as multiple cards were issued, including Megan Rapinoe’s first sending off in her NWSL career.
