The Portland Thorns had a congested week with three matches in seven days. In this piece, we analyze them all: the draw against Angel City, the win against the Bay FC, and the loss to Kansas City.
Thorns vs Angel City
The beginning of the first and second halves were the parts of the match when Portland shone, but after those initial minutes, the team kind of diluted itself. The momentum chart below shows it pretty well.
No Sophia Wilson? No (big) problem. The Thorns have demonstrated that they can find their way to score no matter who's (or who's not) up top.
But no Olivia Moultrie? You see, that's an issue, and more so after Sam Coffey left.
