The Lussi goal was an incredible moment. I haven't heard Providence Park that loud in a while. Hell of a debut game for NWSL on ESPN, plenty of excitement, lots of goals, some good saves, some boneheaded mistakes, it had it all. I especially loved two things about the end of the game. First, after Orlando tied the game in the 90th minute, as Portland were looking to kick off, one of the Pride players decided it was a good time to tie their shoe instead of getting back. Well, after the Lussi goal, with Orlando looking to make something happen in the final seconds, Sinclair returned the favor by tying her shoe. Second, and I can't find a video of it, but Mark Parsons went absolutely loving bonkers running onto the pitch, jumping up and down and screaming when Lussi put that header in. If anyone has a video of it, I'd love it if you could share. Edit: found video of Parsons, at the 23 second mark. Sub Par fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Jul 16, 2019 |

I was really encouraged by how well the Thorns passed and moved last night. Was great to see, especially coming off of a fairly poor performance a game ago. Both times they've re-integrated the internationals, they looked disjointed in the first match and then awesome in the second. Hoping Parsons learns some lessons on that front that we can apply next year with the Olympics.
