Angel City’s season had already ended by the time the team took the field for the final home game on its schedule. A win by Bay FC earlier in the weekend had eliminated Angel City from playoff contention for the second time in three seasons, leaving it playing for little more than pride Sunday against a Utah Royals team that was also playing out the string.
Not surprisingly, the game ended in a 1-1 draw before a modest sun-splashed matinee crowd at BMO Stadium, although the result extended Angel City’s unbeaten streak to a season-long three games.
