    NJ/NY Gotham FC takes on OL Reign in the third home
    match of the 2021 NWSL regular season on Saturday, June
    5, at Red Bull Arena. In celebration of Juneteenth, the
    match will be presented by the New Jersey Institute for
    Social Justice. The action kicks off at 7:00 p.m. ET
    and will be streamed on Paramount+ (U.S.) and Twitch
    (international).

    Gotham FC gets right back into action this weekend
    after falling 1-0 to the Portland Thorns last Sunday at
    home and is looking to bounce back into the win column.
    Despite taking their first loss of the regular season,
    Gotham FC created several chances and maintained good
    possession and passing particularly in the second half,
    finishing with an 80% passing accuracy.

    Budweiser Player of the Match Midge Purce was
    instrumental on both sides of the field for the
    team against Portland. Playing out of the right
    back position, Purce logged a full 90 minutes and
    made a total of three tackles, two clearances, two
    interceptions, two key passes, took one shot and made
    seven crosses during that time.

    Apart from Purce, the rest of Gotham FC’s defensive line
    were equally vital in slowing down Portland’s attack.
    Caprice Dydasco, Mandy Freeman and Estelle Johnson each
    recorded a passing accuracy of over 85% and combined
    for four of the five blocks the team had. One of Kailen
    Sheridan’s seven saves on the night would go on to
    win the Save of the Week for Week 3 action. In other

“We look forward to playing OL Reign at RBA. They have a very
    attacking minded midfield and have a quality service from
  Rapinoe. We have to ensure we don’t give away set pieces in
  dangerous areas. It is important for us to get back to getting
     points from games following last week. There were very
  pleasing moments from last week’s game, but we have to find
 more quality with getting shots on target. I am looking forward
               to see the battle unfold in midfield.”
                  —Head Coach Freya Coombe

NWSL honors, Sheridan and Dydasco were both named to
the NWSL Team of the Month for May for their defensive
performances in the opening weeks of the regular season.

OL Reign also comes into the match following a 1-0 loss
against the Washington Spirit at home on Sunday. Despite
OL Reign maintaining most of the ball possession during
the game (57.2%) and taking 15 shots, they were unable to
find the back of the net. The Spirit capitalized on the
situation, earned a corner, sent in a difficult cross for
OL Reign’s goalkeeper and defense, and ended up scoring
off Megan Rapinoe for an own goal.

Both teams will be fighting to take the three points
after coming out of losses in their last games. The last
time these two teams faced each other was almost a year
ago during the preliminary round of the 2020 Challenge
Cup with the match ending in a scoreless draw. Since
then, both teams have made changes, player acquisitions,
and seen the return of National Team players, making
this a very different match up from last time. Of those
changes, one of the most noticeable is Allie Long now
playing in the Gotham FC midfield following a trade from
OL Reign in April after spending just over three seasons
in Tacoma.
