Goals from Havana Solaun and Jess Fishlock power the Reign to a 2-0 victory in the team's first preseason match.
It took them awhile to find their footing, but two goals in two minutes gave the Seattle Reign a 2-0 win over Portland Thorns FC.
Both teams started what is expected to be their preferred Starting XI on Day 1. For the Reign, that meant Manon Melis started up top with Bev Yanez and Merrit Mathias. Jess Fishlock, Kim Little, and Keelin Winters began in midfield. Along the back line, Lauren Barnes started at left back, a position she played in 2013, while Rachel Corsie and Kendall Fletcher paired up in the middle, Elli Reed filled in at right back, and Hope Solo started in goal.
