Reign Weekly 11-3: We’re On To Gotham

 

Jess Fishlock’s final regular season match at Lumen Field went the way it should: Reign FC beat the Orlando Pride 1-0 and clinched the eighth and final playoff spot. A draw or a loss would have ended the season, after North Carolina won late in their own match. Keely Dunning opens with the stakes and why a sendoff like this means more than the score line. Next up: the No. 1 seed Gotham FC, who won it all last year as an 8 seed. Laura Schott joins to preview the matchup, and discusses why an upset wouldn’t be shocking. The Reign lost 3-2 to Gotham in July after letting a lead slip late, but a team that won nine matches after the summer break, through Spokane home games and a packed World Cup year schedule, has every reason to believe. Reign FC at Gotham FC, Sunday, November 8, 9:30 a.m. PT on ABC and ESPN Deportes. Watch with fellow fans at the official watch party at Rough & Tumble Pub in Ballard, starting at 9:00 a.m.
