Barbra Banda scores a late winner to put the Pride back on track. The shutout was just about as important after recent weeks. The Courage had opportunities in the second half, especially with exquisite through balls from Manaka, but Banda is inevitable. #NWSLMay 8 Open postTrevor Larner @trevorl.bsky.socialBlueskyNew #NWSL rest of season predictions!
Two tiers at the top - Washington & Portland in 1A, and San Diego & Gotham in 1B. Behind them, KC and Orlando still have a ~5% shot of the shield.
North Carolina still finds themselves on the right side of the playoff line, aided by good performances.May 4 Open postExpected Own Goals @xowngoals.comBlueskyThe first shot didn't come until the 26th minute. The first quality chance didn't arrive until the 61st. It was that kind of night between the Orlando Pride & North Carolina Courage.

Badly needed win for Orlando, which didn't play its best in the attacking half but did enough.
