Preview: KC Current at Racing Louisville to open 2022 Challence Cup

“We are excited for the next part of the journey which is to go play some games. We’ve got to this point where we have been building our identity on and off the field and we are ready to go play someone else now.” – KC Current Head Coach Matt Potter

The Kansas City Current travels to Racing Louisville to kick off the 2022 NWSL Challenge Cup at 6:30 p.m. tonight. Kansas City and Louisville have a lot of similarities, expansion teams in 2021, new coaches and revamped rosters all around.

After a relatively strong finish last season, the Current added a pair of US internationals (Sam Mewis and Lynn Williams), hired Matt Potter as the new head coach and signed several draft picks.
