Seattle Reign's Merritt Mathias was reported to have shoved Groom into the ground
On Saturday night when the Seattle Reign played FC Kansas City, there was an apparent incident between FC Kansas City's Shea Groom and Merritt Mathias. The NWSL Disciplinary Committee reviewed the incident and will take no disciplinary action.
The play took place starting around the 12 minute mark of the game video. FC Kansas City took a free kick and Groom can be seen coming into contact with Reign players while going for the cross. Unfortunately the game video followed the ball and what took place was not caught on that video, even the announcer did not see anything and mistakenly referred to Groom as Desiree Scott.
