Tyler Lussi keeps NC Courage undefeated at home in NWSL
Tyler Lussi scored her third goal in three matches, and the North Carolina Courage defeated the Seattle Reign 1-0 on Saturday afternoon in the National Women’s Soccer League.
The Courage (4-2-0) extended their home regular-season undefeated streak to 13 matches and have earned shutouts in 12 of their last 16 games at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, North Carolina.
In the 37th minute, Ashley Sanchez got the ball in space on the left side of the field and crossed it into the box for Lussi, who volleyed it in with the outside of her foot.
The Reign had several chances to equalize. Tziarra King smashed a shot off the post, Ji So-yun nearly snuck her shot into the right corner, and Casey Murphy came up with a big save on one of the last plays of the game to earn the shutout.
The Reign (1-5-0) have now lost five straight matches and sit at the bottom of the league.
