Half Time: FC Gold Pride at Sol
Sol 0 FC Gold Pride 0
Whether it's the heat, lack of atmosphere compared to the opening game or something else, but today's game is being played a couple of gears down from what we've seen from the Sol so far.
The Sol had the ball in the net twice, but both were called back for offside; that's actually more than they've had shots on target (one).
The best Sol chance came in first half stoppage time when a bad mistake by Gold Pride defender Rachel Buehler allowed Aya Miyama to latch onto the ball, but she poked it wide of the far post.
