Goals from Sydney Leroux and Madison Curry aren't enough to rescue Angel City FC from a 4-2 loss to unbeaten Kansas City.
Kansas City remained perfect this season with a 4-2 victory over Angel City on Saturday at the Current's new CPKC Stadium. The Current are 3-0-0 and sit atop the National Women's Soccer League. Vanessa DiBernardo opened the scoring for the Current in the seventh minute. Teammate Bia Zaneratto won the ball high up the field and crossed it to Temwa Chawinga in the middle, who flicked it to her right with the outside of her foot. DiBernado shot it into the upper right corner.
The forward sent a powerful shot into the back of the net, becoming the first Malawian player to score in the NWSL. Angel City put some pressure on the Current to close out the match. In the 79th minute, Madison Curry pounced on a loose ball from a corner kick, bringing Angel City to within one. A few minutes later, Rocky Rodriguez scored what looked to be the tying goal on a similar play off a corner, but a video review disallowed the goal for offside.
