Game state drove a flurry of San Diego Wave attack at the death, but Angel City held on for a road derby win. Score: 0 - 2 Non-penalty xG: 1.8 - 2.0 Non-penalty xG per Shot: 0.11 - 0.16 Quality Chances*: 3 - 3 Field Tilt: 78 - 22 #AngelCityFC | #SDvLA
PAGING @johnspacemuller.com: No team has ever launched more throw-ins into the box in #NWSL history than Angel City have this year. They finally got their reward with a goal. #AngelCityFC | #LAvSD

Gotham didn't want to play it in February when it was initially scheduled
That was definitely a first half of soccer, as the #USWNT and Brazil battle at the Castelão. 45+ more minutes to go. Score: 0 - 0 "Sweet Spot" Shots*: 0 - 1 Shots in the Box: 0 - 5 Touches in the Box: 2 - 10 Field Tilt: 52 - 48
The #USWNT reasserted themselves in the second half but couldn't crack Brazil's code, dropping the result in São Paulo. The sides go again in Fortaleza on Tuesday. Score: 2 - 1 "Sweet Spot" Shots*: 3 - 3 Shots in the Box: 8 - 8 Touches in the Box: 25 - 30 Field Tilt: 35 - 65
The #USWNT unable to manage Brazil's physicality and the energy of the crowd (and really miss Sam Coffey). They now have to hole to dig themselves out of in São Paolo. Score: 2 - 1 "Sweet Spot" Shots*: 3 - 0 Shots in the Box: 6 - 1 Touches in the Box: 19 - 4 Field Tilt: 45 - 55
Angel City have conceded half of their goals allowed after the 75th minute, and it cost them at home against the North Carolina Courage. Score: 1 - 2 xG: 1.6 - 1.2 xG per Shot: 0.09 - 0.12 Quality Chances*: 3 - 3 Touches in the Box: 37 - 17 Field Tilt: 50 - 50 #AngelCityFC | #LAvNC | #NWSL
