The night started off festive as the Seattle Reign FC celebrated head coach and general manager Laura Harvey coaching in her 100th NWSL regular season match. Unfortunately the night did not end with a celebratory spirit as the Reign FC and Boston Breakers played to a 1-1 draw.
Seattle's goal came in the 36th minute as Breakers goalkeeper Abby Smith attempted a clearance but didn't get all of it and the ball took a teardrop just outside the penalty box and forward Nahomi Kawasumi measured it and sent a looping shot over Smith to open the scoring.
