In the end it was an own goal. It came off a shot that was neither on target nor headed anywhere a teammate figured to be. But it still showed off some of the best of what the Kansas City Current can offer, and set them on course to a third-straight win as the Shield holders look to put a 2-4-0 start in the rearview mirror.
It began with the Dash sitting back and allowing their hosts to freely knock the ball along their back four. The first aggressive play was to find Temwa Chawinga on the left side of the midfield.
