NJ/NY Gotham FC team news

For Gotham, their lone goal this year came via Brazilian international Gabi Portilho, but rookies Sarah Schupansky and Ella Stevens have been creative sparks, each tallying eight chances created. Despite losing big names like Yazmeen Ryan, Delanie Sheehan, Lynn Biyendolo (formerly Williams), and Crystal Dunn, newcomers like Schupansky and Jaelin Howell—acquired in the trade for Biyendolo—have made early impacts.

Rookie defender Lily Reale out of UCLA has also impressed in her first professional season, and she’ll be tasked with an even larger role after Tierna Davidson was ruled out for the year with a torn ACL.

North Carolina Courage team news

The Courage shook things up in that clash with Portland, handing first starts of the season to Meredith Speck, Hannah Betfort, and Shinomi Koyama after standout showings off the bench in Week 1. The attacking reshuffle nearly paid off, as the Courage produced a decent 2.33 xG and Betfort was twice denied by the post.

North Carolina's young core continues to shine, with five players under the age of 21 logging minutes—the most of any team in the league. Collectively, they've generated 17 chances, the highest total among U-21 contributors this season.
