Jessica McDonald scored a brace on Sunday, giving the Seattle Reign a 2-1 come-from-behind win against the Washington Spirit in front of a sold out crowd of ~3800.
The Reign are now 4-0-2 over the last six matches, and might actually have a chance of getting to the playoffs if they keep winning. That possibility seemed far from reality when they were in the thick of their 10-match losing streak. But while it is mathematically possible, they still have a long way to go.
It was a beautiful day at Starfire. I’ve said it many times before – I love shooting there during the day. (Nighttime is another story.) Although the sun was a bit harsh at times, at least there was no major glare off of the empty bleachers. They were filled with people!
There are only two more home matches in the regular season – Chicago on July 25 and Portland on August 17. If you still haven’t been to a match, I recommend checking them out. They are definitely a lot more fun when they are winning!
