KC Current Thoughts: Temwa Does The Impossible!

So let's start out with talking about the game against Racing Louisville.

Now, we have been struggling a lot in the games leading up to this game.

It's very clear that we got that CPKC bump.

Obviously, we always play better there.

We haven't lost since early in 2024.

I was actually at this game.

And, you know...

Obviously, racing Louisville is not great, to say the most.

But a 5-1 win on any team with as many injuries as we have right now, and how gassed we are with three games in a week, is no small feat, in my opinion.

I think moving Hopkins into the box was very key, as my co-host suggested we do a few weeks ago.

Sorry, on this podcast, we call her HaHop.

But yeah, Haley Hopkins, moving her in the middle was very key.

She's much more effective there.

And I think while sometimes the amount of pressure we put on teams, especially at the beginning of games, can backfire...

Louisville really was unable to defend against it and kind of quickly collapsed.

Amelia White gets her first goal, which was very well deserved.

She's been playing great.

Always seems to be creating good opportunities for herself.

And it felt like it was just about time that that was going to happen.

So that was all awesome.

But despite that win, We've only won one game in our last five.

We're actually won two and two in our last five games.

So that brings us to the current versus Angel City FC match.

It ended up in our second draw of the season.

I will say, Angel City FC, I hope, was very grateful for Angelina Anderson in that match.
