The Washington Spirit were almost out of the NWSL championships, but leveled the match in second half stoppage time. Despite Gotham's losing a player to two yellows in the first extra time period, the Spirit didn't manage to score the winner, and Gotham had a chance or two. But to PKs it went, and three worse PKs than Gotham kicked are hardly to be found. All were saved rather easily by the Spirit GK; she had only to avoid diving the wrong way. The Spirit kicks were quite good and beat the Gotham keeper, though two just barely. On to the final!
Arsenal and Chelsea drew 1-1 at the Bridge in a game in which the Gunners (to my eye) looked a bit sharper. It leaves us nine back of Liverpool and four behind City, who've lost four games running in all competitions. There are 27 games to go, so there's a chance, if we can stay healthy. We lost 1-0 in Milan to Inter in CL via a generous handball call.
