Falling short of Reigning supreme: Gotham wins NWSL Championship over Seattle side
For a third time in their history, the OL Reign have fallen just short of reaching the mountain top. The Reign fall in heartbreaking fashion to NJ/NY Gotham FC in the NWSL Championship, as Megan Rapinoe had to leave the match just five minutes in and the Reign missed numerous opportunities in the second half to equalize.

The OL Reign dropped their second match in a row, this one in blowout fashion as the club was blasted by NY/NJ Gotham FC thanks to a final score of 4-1. The Reign stumbled defensively out of the game, as mistakes riddled their backline and Gotham scored twice within the first 12 minutes.
