Not to be that person but AC FO caved to public pressure for a woman coach. This is the consequence, because Gotham wasn't performing well with Freya at the head.

You know what, you’re right. This is precisely what they deserve this for actively snipping another NWSL team’s head coach WHILE THE SEASON WAS STILL ACTIVELY GOING ON.

[ID: a screenshot of a statement from PRO media on the Gotham FC vs. Angel City game:

During the National Women’s Soccer League match between NJ/NY Gotham FC and Angel City FC on August 28, an egregious officiating error was made in the 12th minute when a goal was incorrectly not awarded to NJ/NY Gotham FC after the ball had crossed the goal line between the goal posts.

The match officials misjudged where the ball had crossed the goal line, and wrongly awarded a corner kick to NJ/NY Gotham FC.

The officials involved in this error have been removed from their next PRO assignment(s).

Pregame: NJ/NY Gotham FC vs. Orlando Pride (August 29)

Background:

Gotham had an unexpectedly strong start to the season, winning the Eastern side of the Challenge Cup and taking Portland Thorns to penalty kicks in the final, and then taking only one loss in their first eleven games of the regular season. However, they seem to be coming back down to earth now, losing three of their last four games, and are now smack in the middle of a seven-team group vying for essentially four playoff spots. Off the field, they have also been going through it a bit - their GM, Alyse LaHue, was fired in mid-July, and then last week it was announced that Angel City, an NWSL expansion team, had hired their Head Coach, Freya Coombe. Initially it seemed that Coombe would be staying with the team, but shortly thereafter it was announced that she would be leaving the team, apparently to avoid any conflicts of interest as she prepares for an expansion draft. Gotham's defensive power throughout the season has been spectacular, with Estelle Johnson and Caprice Dydasco becoming particularly crucial players this season, but a few more injuries than they were expecting, along with the loss of their Olympic players for a few weeks, have caused the team to struggle to get results.

The Orlando Pride also had an unbelievable start to the regular season, holding onto the top spot in the league through late June. Nobody expected this result from them, including themselves, and shortly after their results started declining, it was announced that their head coach would be departing the team to coach in England at Manchester United. Ashlyn Harris has been outstanding in goal, and Syd Leroux has been on a scoring tear all season, but nearly everything in between the two of them has shown moments of shakiness over the last couple of months. They are also in the same seven-team group that Gotham is (both coming into this week on 21 points, although Gotham has a game in hand), but it isn't clear what their plan for shoring up their weaknesses over the remainder of the season will be.

Momentum:

Both of these teams had very strong starts to their seasons, but much weaker results in recent weeks.

Gotham has lost three and tied the other two of its last five games. While some of these results aren't surprising - losses to the Courage and the Thorns are pretty much expected at this point in the season, for any team - some of them absolutely were, including a 3-2 loss to OL Reign, during which Gotham had come out with a 2-0 lead early on, and draws against the Houston Dash and Racing Louisville, currently 8th and 9th in the league.

Gotham has played significant minutes in its last three games in a 3-5-2 formation, as opposed to its typical 4-3-3 or 4-4-2. However, in the second half of their last game (a 2-1 loss against the Thorns), they moved back to a 4-4-2 and showed much more resistance, so I would expect that to be the case here, particularly with Erika Skroski (their third center back in the 3-5-2) out with injury.

Gotham has also had a slew of injuries that they probably weren't expecting, and they coincided with the Olympic stretch. Going into that stretch, I would have expected Gotham to be in one of the better places for teams in terms of losing players, but it did not turn into results, particularly with Paige Monaghan getting injured before the stretch, and Margaret Purce getting injured during it. Gotham has been struggling to find their attacking power, and with those two out, as well as Carli Lloyd and Evelyn Viens gone for the Olympics, it has largely fallen to Ify Onumonu to keep them afloat in recent weeks (and to her credit, she has done more than her share of that). With Lloyd and Viens back, as well as Imani Dorsey back to get at least some minutes at left back after a few weeks of injury, Gotham will be hoping to get things back on track here.

The Pride lost last week against the Washington Spirit - after Marta scored a truly incredible goal late in the match, the Pride defense seemed to switch off and allowed Ashley Hatch an easy tap-in, and even after the defense regrouped, Ashley Sanchez, not to be outdone by Marta, scored an absolute banger. They did earn draws against the Courage and the Thorns, as well as a win against the Red Stars, in the three games before that, so they will be hoping to make the game against the Spirit an anomaly.

Predictions:

Scoreline: Gotham 1-1 Pride

Gotham XI (4-4-2):

GK: Sheridan

4: Dorsey*, Johnson, Lewandowski, Dydasco

4: Long, Eddy, Cudjoe, Thiney

2: Lloyd, Onumonu

Orlando XI (4-3-3):

GK: Harris

4: McClernon, Turner**, Krieger, Riley

3: Dougherty Howard, Jonsdottir, Kornieck

3: Leroux, Taylor, Marta

Warm-ish Takes and Full Disclosure:

Gotham is one of the two teams that I root for (along with the Spirit), so I might not be...completely objective here.

*Imani Dorsey has been out with injury for a few weeks. She was cleared to play 30 minutes against OL Reign a week ago, and 45 against Portland on Wednesday. Gotham fans will be hoping she's cleared for more than that today, since she seems to be pretty key to their four-back. If she's not available, I would expect to see Sabrina Flores here (or possible swapped to the right, with Dydasco at left back).

As mentioned above, Gotham has been experimenting with a 3-5-2 in recent weeks. This has not been working out terribly well for them - it does seem to be a response to the number of players they have out injured, and the healthy players seeming to all be midfielders. Gotham's roster composition is a little strange, with a lot of solid midfielders, three natural central forwards, and a decent number of very capable center backs, but very few natural wide players at forward or outside back. The 3-5-2 seems to be the best way to get only their best available players on the field, but it has not been working for them at all. I would expect them to return to a 4-4-2 this week, with Lloyd and Onumonu playing the forward roles and Thiney at the top of a midfield diamond. Particularly with Skroski, who has been fairly solid as one of a three-back, out with injury, I would not expect to see the 3-5-2 experiment continue, and if it does (particularly if it does not work out for Gotham), Freya Coombe will likely be leaving her last Gotham game with significantly less goodwill than she came into the week with.

**Turner, who seems to be slotting into a starting role at center back alongside Ali Krieger, is listed as questionable on this week's injury report. If she isn't fit to play, I would expect to see Toni Pressley here.

Courtney Peterson has been extremely useful to the Pride at left-back this season, but she is listed as out on this week's injury report. Phoebe McClernon has gotten a couple of looks here, and I would expect to see her here again in Peterson's absence, but I don't think that's a lock.

Alex Morgan is out with injury, which, while not surprising, is unhelpful for a Pride team looking to return to its earlier form. Between Marta, Leroux, and Jodie Taylor, the Pride still have a good number of attacking threats. I would also expect to see Taylor Kornieck or possibly Erika Tymrak in an attacking midfield role - both of those players have demonstrated that they can be a threat in front of goal throughout the season.
