Overview
- Both sides finished scoreless at Lumen Field as chances were scarce, with Kailen Sheridan making five saves and Claudia Dickey denying San Diego’s best looks.
- San Diego controlled much of the ball but struggled to create clear chances as Seattle’s organized press and compact back line repeatedly shut down entries into the box.
- The result lifts the Reign to fifth in the table, six points clear of the playoff cut and one point shy of a first-round home slot.
- Head coach Laura Harvey said Lynn Biyendolo will be shut down for a few weeks with a knee issue, while Ana-Maria Crnogorčević and Hanna Glas returned from injury and Shae Holmes remained out.
- The Wave extended a club-record seven-match road unbeaten run, and defender Kristen McNabb marked her 150th NWSL appearance.
