Sam Kerr has officially announced her return to the United States in the most emphatic fashion possible, ending a nearly seven-year wait to get back on an NWSL scoresheet. The former Chelsea superstar proved she hasn't lost her clinical edge, rescuing a vital point for Gotham FC in a pulsating 2-2 draw against the Portland Thorns.
U.S. Women's National Team captain Lindsey Heaps is eligible to make her long-awaited debut for the Denver Summit against the Portland Thorns at Centennial Stadium - which is less than 35 miles away from her hometown, Golden, Colo. Heaps, 32, signed a pre-contract with the first-year club prior to the NWSL season, after starring with French giants OL Lyonnes for the past four years.
