KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Orlando Pride forward Marta held her right index finger in the air inside the swanky stadium club of CPKC Stadium to indicate the No. 1. This is where the six-time world player of the year ranks Saturday's NWSL Championship among all the games in her career, an illustrious one that includes a World Cup final and three Olympic gold-medal matches.
"The way we [played] from the beginning of the season to now, it's something very special that I never had before in any other club that I played for," Marta said.
