San Diego outplays NJ/NY Gotham FC in the second half after hearing challenging words from coach Casey Stoney during the intermission
Even if the goal they scored was sprinkled with pixie dust, the Wave did not luck their way to their 1-1 tie Sunday against defending NWSL champion NJ/NY Gotham FC on Sunday before an announced crowd of 16,074 at Snapdragon Stadium. They outplayed Gotham in the second half, after hearing challenging words from coach Casey Stoney during the intermission. They saw goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan add to her bona fides as a favorite of soccer aficionados.
I think we’re privileged. I really do. I’ve seen many a goalkeeper that are good. I’ve never seen someone quite as world-class as Kailen.” Sheridan was afforded no chance by Gotham on the shot that put the Wave into a 1-0 deficit in the 25th minutes. Ella Stevens tamed a crossing pass into the box with her left foot, pivoted and slammed a 12-yard liner with her right foot. The ball whistled between the left post and Sheridan before the 'keeper could make a leap.
