Orlando Pride win 2024 NWSL title with 1-0 victory over Washington Spirit

The Orlando Pride won the 2024 NWSL championship with a 1-0 victory over the Washington Spirit at CPKC Stadium in Kansas City on Saturday night.

Barbra Banda’s first-half goal was all the Pride needed to earn the first-ever NWSL title in franchise history. After winning the NWSL Shield in the regular season with an 18-6-2 record, Orlando continued its dominance over the Spirit with a fifth straight win over their opponents dating back to the 2023 season.

Banda, who scored 16 times in 24 regular-season games, put the Pride ahead in the 37th minute with her fourth goal of the postseason.
