Goal drought continues in loss to Chicago

The Dash’s offensive struggles (they haven’t scored since May 24) continued in a 1-0 loss to Chicago on Saturday.

Chicago forward Mallory Swanson, who will play for the United States at the Paris Olympics, scored in stoppage time late in the first half as both teams played their final game before the NWSL’s Olympic break.

The Dash had an early chance but Diana Ordonez couldn’t control a pass in front of Chicago’s goal from Yuki Nagasato.

Chicago goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher, a U.S. Olympian, made six saves to keep the team scoreless. Houston’s Jane Campbell, who will be a substitute for Team USA in Paris, made three saves, including one on a header by Ordonez in the 55th minute and another 12 minutes later.

Houston’s last chance to tie the game came in the 88th minute when Jyllissa Harris’ header just missed the post.

The Dash will be free until July 28 when they play Tigres UANL in the NWSL x LIGA MX Femenil Summer Cup.
