San Diego Wave FC team news

The Wave's attack is firing on all cylinders with 11 different players finding the net this season, and Kailen Sheridan anchoring the back with standout performances.

The French maestro played a pivotal role in extending San Diego's three-game winning streak, delivering the inch-perfect assist for Trinity Armstrong’s stoppage-time winner last weekend.

Ever-present in the starting XI, Kenza Dali has logged nearly every minute through seven matches, chipped in with a pinpoint free-kick goal against Racing Louisville on April 19, and tallied two assists so far in 2025. Her commanding performances earned her a spot in April's NWSL Best XI and a Player of the Week nomination following Week 8.

Portland Thorns team news

Young talents like Jayden Perry and Reilyn Turner continue to impress, while Jessie Fleming notched her maiden NWSL goal from the spot recently, adding another weapon to Portland's growing set-piece threat.

Portland's rising defensive star Perry has bagged two goals and an assist over the Thorns' last three outings, coolly converting penalties in back-to-back matches to help extend their unbeaten streak. Her standout moment came in Week 7 with a sublime long-range ball from midfield that connected perfectly with Turner, her former UCLA teammate, earning Perry Assist of the Week honors while Turner claimed Goal of the Week. The duo's chemistry is proving vital in Portland's upward push.
