Seattle Reign vs. Bay FC: Gamethread

Susie Rantz -

Seattle Reign hosts a big game at Lumen Field today. The Reign still have a narrow window to make the playoffs, but they need results to close out the season. They have a chance to move up the table today if they can get a win against a Bay FC team that has been cooking since returning from the Olympic break.

Today's match kicks off at 3 PM PT and will air locally on KONG TV and stream on NWSL+ and KING5+.

With a win, the Reign could jump into 10th place and finish the weekend two points out of eighth, the final playoff spot. Just four games remain after today's match – every point matters.
