Seattle Reign vs. NC Courage: Gamethread
Another road trip, another opportunity for Seattle Reign to start a new trend of picking up points. The Reign face the North Carolina Courage at 4 PM PT today. The match at WakeMed Soccer Park will air locally on KONG TV and stream on KING5+ and NWSL+.
North Carolina is also coming off a 2-1 loss, as they had to travel across the country last week to face Angel City FC. The Reign have historically struggled to get results in Cary, but they are motivated to put it all together this weekend.
What to Watch
- Can the Reign transition well against the Courage?
- Don't let the Courage make you chase the ball for long spells
- Set pieces: the Courage give up and score a lot of set pieces
