It was a quintessential goal from Barbra Banda (off a pass from Angelina in the 37th minute) that sealed a nearly perfect 2024 season for the Orlando Pride, beating the No. 2 Washington Spirit, 1-0, on Saturday night, November 28, at CPKC Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
No. 2 Washington Spirit held possession 58% of the match, outshot their counterparts 26-9 (including a 5-3 shots on goal tally), but possession and shooting alone are not worth any points.
With the win the Orlando Pride swept both the 2024 regular-season Shield and their first NWSL Championship.
