You know that old saying about soccer, “It was a game of two halves?” Well tonight at Cheney Stadium, that literally played out as OL Reign met Gotham FC for the third time this season. Gotham took the first two meetings, and to avoid the regular season series sweep OL Reign pulled off a monumental comeback, perhaps fitting of the drama, the frustration, and the highs for head coach Laura Harvey’s Cheney Stadium debut. A brace by Gotham’s Ifeoma Onumonu was the tale of the first half. Despite the two-goal hole, OL Reign did not feel deterred as they were knocking on Gotham’s door and the breakthroughs came in the second half.
