WPS PREVIEW WEEK 4
LOS ANGELES SOL v. FC GOLD PRIDE ...Sun 19th April 4pm ET follow on matchtracker.
West Coast rivals, both undefeated , the top 2 in the league , attacking flair....this match should have been televised on FSC but alas.We get to see this game live in mid season though.
At the Home Depot Center in California the Los Angles Sol play after their bye week. They sit pretty at the top of the league with a 100% record, scored 4 goals and conceded none.Marta their marquee player scoring 2 but they are more than Marta's team. Look out for Japan's Aya Miyama to shine she had a great 1st game for the Sol and she is a free-kick specialist with an assist already for the inaugural game. The Sol have a fast attacking style which can only get better with the type of players they have. Canadian International defender Martina Franko signed during the week.Squad is looking solid in defence also with GK Karina Leblanc looking for another clean sheet.
FC Gold Pride look to continue their good form against their Californian neighbours. After beating the Breakers in the 1st game and getting an away draw against Sky Blue FC, the Pride are looking to get back to winning ways again.The exciting Tiffany Weimer is looking to continue her blitz in the soccer world. She was watched by the USWNT head coach Pia Sundhage last week and could possibly make the next squad. Japan's Eriko Arakawa is up against her teammate Miyama and hoping to score her 2nd goal of the season.Brazilian defender Erika broke her nose and cheekbone in their 1st game and is doubtful, unless she wears a mask.
My prediction 2-1 Sol win. (Sol's offence is to strong for the Pride in an exciting match).
