    WHAT HAPPENED

    USWNT legend Alyssa Naeher made her 200th National Women's Soccer League start for the Chicago Stars on Monday night, becoming the first goalkeeper in league history to reach the  milestone.

    The match against Seattle Reign turned into an even more memorable occasion when Naeher pushed forward in the dying moments of stoppage time with her team trailing 3-2.

    The Stars had already mounted a remarkable comeback with two late goals, and Naeher completed the dramatic rescue by finding herself in the right position during a chaotic sequence in front of Seattle's goal in the 99th minute.
