Women’s Professional Soccer in the U.S. is the best in the world but the leagues are still struggling. The Flash just finished its fourth season in as many leagues and lost the championship game on Saturday night in front of a crowd of nine thousand. They lost to Portland who has averaged thirteen thousand a game in their home town. There was a surprisingly large Portland contingent in town for Saturday’s game.
We followed the national team during the Olympics and World Cup and got hooked on the local team when Marta played alongside of Alex Morgan a few years ago. They played better soccer than the Rhinos, exhibited better control with more finesse and less loose balls. The last game was a nail biter. The Flash lost but it was great soccer and a great game. We’re looking forward to next season.
