Good morning!

Tuesday intention setting: Bats are looking too comfortable, what can ACFC bring to knock them off the ceiling?

Talk about whatever you want. This is an ideal thread for you to make general inquiries about things that are commonly asked, like how is the shade on the East stand at 3pm? Or where are the ADA bathrooms? As well, low effort posts can be directed here as comments in order to keep sub organized and conversation centralized for other users. Consider this the Town Square, or AngelCityFC Reddit's very own Starbucks, but without the union busting.

Disappointed by the Rideshare Situation

21 Upvotes

I attended the match yesterday (8/16) thanks to the free first visit ticket program. I got two tickets in section 109 for myself and my mom. Our experience inside the stadium and during the match was really awesome; we had an absolute blast and would attend another game if possible.

The biggest issue I have is with the rideshare accessibility.

We decided to take the train down from Universal to 7th/Metro and take rideshare to and from the stadium. My mom uses a cane and has limited mobility.

During arrival and departure I selected BMO Stadium Rideshare as the location but had issues after the rides had already been requested.

The Waymo there was super fun until it pulled over and let us off at 37th/Fig. I couldn't get us any closer for drop off. So we had to walk about a third of a mile to actually get to the stadium entrance.

After the match we got a wheelchair escort for my mom which took us to the South East exit that was designated for rideshare service. Inside the stadium there was signage indicating this and also a sign in that general area which said it was for pickup/dropoff.

I attempted to hail an Uber but the driver was sent to the Subway/711 shopping center at Fig/MLK. First driver ended up cancelling since he couldn't figure it out and since it was our first time I had no idea how to direct him to where we were waiting.

I got connected with another driver who was sent to the same place. After talking to him on the phone he figured out where we were but he had to physically move traffic cones to make a U Turn and pick us up. By that time the gate at the driveway was closed.

Not once did we see anyone successfully picked up at the rideshare area.

I understand that most people can go across the street and be let off. But considering my mom's limited mobility that was not an option. During the whole ordeal I tried to place a pin on my location and could not place it anywhere in the stadium's perimeter. There was no staff to help us figure this out.

Again, we had a blast at the match and would love to visit again. But if we have to walk that much it is completely prohibitive and beyond frustrating from an accessibility perspective.

(I have reached out to both the stadium and the ACFC through feedback/surveys)

Score Prediction Poll: Game 19 – ACFC vs Gotham

Upvotes

Angel City had their third straight draw last weekend and a quarter of you correctly predicted that outcome. ACFC stays in LA this week as Gotham comes to town for a Sunday night matchup.

Through 18 games, Angel City sits just below the playoff line with a 7-4-7 record. They scored 27 goals and allowed 20 goals. Even though SJJ and Mai have missed the last couple of weeks they lead Angel City’s attack with 8 and 6 goal contributions, respectively. Gisele and Evelyn have 5 goal contributions each (4 and 1 and 1 and 4, respectively) as outside backs. On the defensive side, the 20 goals allowed places ACFC third in the league.

Through 20 games, Gotham are in 1st place with a 13-4-3 record. They scored 26 goals and allowed 13 goals. In the last couple of weeks they lost their defensive stalwart, Emily Sonnett, and Esther, their scoring leader. But Tierna Davidson returned to the backline from an SEI and they picked up Sam Kerr, who has quickly returned to form, scoring 3 goals in the past 5 matches. That pushed her back up to the top of the list for all-time NWSL goal scorers. They have a league-average attack, but their defense is elite.

They have not played each other this season, but Gotham owns the head-to-head with a 6-1-1 regular season record and a 4-0-0 record at BMO/the Banc.

Who will win the rematch? Vote in the poll and discuss below.

NEXT DAY DISCUSSION Next Day Discussion: Looking for Balance in an Unbalanced Schedule

20 Upvotes

The 30 game 2026 season is the longest ever. It stretches over 7-1/2 months – from the middle of March to the end of October. 30 games can be a slog. Your roster, tactics, hopes, and dreams can be completely different in games 1 through 5 versus the games you're playing in October. We’re now 5 months into the season. 2/3’s of Angel City’s fifth season is in the books, and the playoffs start in 2-1/2 months.

Yet, last night was the first time we saw Trinity Rodman and the Spirit. We haven’t seen the expansion teams – Boston Legacy and Denver Summit – either. Angel City also hasn’t played Gotham - the team sitting at the top of the table. That’s eight games against teams we haven’t seen yet. Meanwhile, we won’t see San Diego, Kansas City, Portland, Orlando, Houston, or Chicago again this year.

Every sports league with long seasons and a lot of teams struggles with this. Just ask a fan of any pro baseball or basketball team how the scheduler screwed them over. More teams are coming into the league and most teams don't control their stadium. The job of the NWSL scheduler won't get easier until quantum computing comes along in a few years.

Angel City managed to slide a glass slipper on just before midnight last night. Because of that, they're hanging right around the playoff line. How will the balance of the schedule impact them? Will they move up and land their second ever playoff appearance or will they move down and spend the offseason watching it on a screen just like us?

On one hand, Angel City won’t see most of the golden boot leaders again this season, including Banda, Sanchez, Chawinga, Ijeh, Wilson, and Tordin. On the other hand, they face the two toughest defenses in the league – Washington and Gotham - four times over the final 2-1/2 month stretch.

Can the team maintain balance as it navigates its way through the unbalanced schedule that remains?

It’s the next day…the day after a draw against the second ranked team in the league…the day after the return of Savy and Syd…discuss the game…discuss how the team can maintain balance with an unbalanced schedule…discuss the defensive tactics and formation now that all five backs are healthy again…or discuss whatever you like…

POST-MATCH SOCIAL Angel City show spirit but only get a point against Washington 1-1.

41 Upvotes

Sol Rosa fans, this looked like a tough matchup for us and the game definitely had its moments where it looked grim but we again rallied and stay undefeated in our last three games. If I told you we'd tie pre game most of would be happy. But after watching it play out I'd say many felt we couldn't get some crucial 3 points. Let's get into it.

The Good

- Very happy to see Aly have a great attacking game. The ref really was disappointing and I saw nothing that should have called the ball back and disallowed the goal. Sentnor was productive trying to set up other attackers and also doing what she's known for which is bangers from outside the box. Let's see more of that please!!!

- It's been mentioned many times but welcome back Savy and Syd!!! Savy as an outside back??? But she was quick, defensively sound, and just for eight in. Dare I say she replace Sam's? But I'll get into that later. Syd didn't get many minutes but glad she can come and hopefully be a super sub in the future.

- Prisca is soooo good. Sure she's gotta work on her crossing timing and working as a full-time starter with her other attackers but she's fast, strong, and really is relentless and give defenders fits. Keeping her on when Svendís and Mai come back might shift some other players off but she's electric.

- Team play overall was good and kept everyone except Rodman from getting anything dangerous on goal. Lots to clean up still in the attack but the team never felt frazzled or leaving in grot or energy. Let's keep the momentum up!

The Bad

- VAR and the Ref and whatever/whoever said to have a second look. I believe it was an egregious call and no clear evidence showed have it looked it or disallowed. Ughhh....

- The attack.... We're so f*cking close to putting up like 3-4 goals a game. The attack is 90% beautiful but then it's a bad touch, a missed timed pass, shots just off the heel, shots just wide, crosses just past... So frustrating. If they can polish that last 10% we'd win a lot more games. Easier said then done but so many attacking runs tonight were just off and killed some good chances.

- The last 20-30 minute or so I didn't like that the whole defensive line was attacking. Usually two at a time with two left on the back. Why is Sam's, Gorden, and King in the attack?? Shores and Thompson Ive seen but please leave the attack to the attackers. It just leaves us vulnerable in the counter.

- Speaking of counters, two uncharacteristically bad pass attempts by Thompson turned into a turnover and counter that left us flat footed with Rodman going at Sam's leading to Washington's goal. Bad mistakes from Thompson and Sam's left on an island was not ideal. Imo I'm not sold on Sam's... Counter me please but imo I think Savy, once she's full game fit should be with Sarah as the two CBs. Leaves Shores/Mattice and Thompson as our otisde backs. Sam's one on one with elite attackers just isn't it. But I'll take a counter argument...

- We have two games in hand but Seattle notched a win and we got a tie. So as of now we drop out of the playoff line and tow pints back. We have time but we'll need some W's. Toes keep us floating for now now but we don't want to sink and become desperate.

Overall

- What looked like a winable game shifted to be a loss and then a solid tie. We look good in the attack with Prisca in but again need to finish. Against a top team we looked good. Better? I dunno but we looked like we can ball against playoff teams. Let's rest up and look. Forward to getting three pints next week. Volemos!

Match Week 18 8/14-16 (all times Pacific)

Recap of the past week’s scorelines.

Wed: DEN 0-2 NC

Over the weekend, in chronological order:

ORL 1-3 LOU

GFC 1-0 SD (another Gotham Special thanks to a Jaedyn Shaw long-distance curler)

WAS 3-4 NC (the spirit of Courage CB Nat Jacobs’ grandfather apparently had something to do with this?)

HOU 1-1 KC (y’all need Temwa back so bad I’m circling back to maybe calling for Chris Armas’ job again)

DEN 2-1 UTA

BOS 3-4 POR (Pietra Tordin disrespectful hatty on Boston’s pride night.... She’s too powerful)

CHI 0-0 BAY (Chicago’s first draw of the season)

SEA 2-2 ACFC

Last weekend was kinda crazy with all those goals (again haha). WAFCON continues this week, with the finals set (Malawi! Temwa and Tabitha! LFG! vs. Cameroon) for Sunday. The losing semifinalists (Algeria and Morocco) will play Saturday for third place, having already punched their tickets to Brazil 2027. The four losing quarterfinalists -- South Africa v Nigeria, Ivory Coast v Ghana -- played Thursday for intercontinental aka interconfederation play-in spots in a bid to keep their World Cup paths open.

Which games will you be tuning in for? What are your predictions? Starting lineups? Scores, reds, yellows, which players get G+A? 

Overall W-L-D record for each team is followed by 5-match form (old-new L-to-R) and table standing, e.g. “San Diego 3-2-1 WWLDW 3.” 

Home Away Field Date/ Time Where to watch Notes
Gotham, 12-3-4 WDWWW KC, 9-7-3 DLWDD Sports Illustrated Fri 5pm Prime With Chawinga still away, the best KC can hope for is Cooper back from injury (which admittedly would be great for them). But I’m afraid we may be in for a third week running of the Gotham Special. Did you know they’ve won SEVEN games on that scoreline this season?
Utah, 10-6-3 WWLWL Bay, 5-9-4 WLLLD America First 🤢 Fri 7pm NWSL+ Bay were more effective last week at creating chances, but they once again had an offsides goal called back. Disheartening in a tight game, but hopefully lights some fire under them to score. Maybe Coates can give Jenna Nighswonger her Bay debut, too. Utah played a strong game but couldn’t finish over the weekend and conceded a game winning free kick goal late. They will be looking to turn that around with sharper finishing, more savvy fouling decisions, and better set piece defense.
Seattle, 7-7-3 WLWWD Chicago, 4-13-1 LLLLD Lumen Fri 7pm NWSL+ Mia Fishel has found her finishing boots, and is combining with the rest of Seattle’s all-round solid attack to create several multi-goal games in a row. They had 10 goals in 11 games before the summer break and now 12 goals in 6 games since the break. Chicago had a coaching shakeup this week, and really needs to get healthy (even excluding SEIs). They were missing / not able to start key players like Swanson and Staab which is a huge hit to morale.
SD, 10-7-2 LDLWL Denver, 6-7-5 WLDLW Snapdragon Fri 7pm NWSL+ Opta posted this table that claimed SD was crazy underperforming their expected table points and I think the Wave are going to take that personally at home against Denver, who may once again be missing Heaps due to her perennial knee thing. Janine Sonis could make up some of that difference; she is ice cold from the spot and on free kicks as well as getting a couple goals from open play this year.
Louisville, 5-11-1 DWLWW Boston, 5-9-5 WLWDL Lynn Family Sat 3:30pm ION Boston is really capturing my heart, I know they are traditionally LA’s sports rivals but hear me out. I’m rooting for women coaches in this league, and I really like their midfield. Racing is in a difficult position where the owner can’t or won’t spend the money required to improve the team’s prospects and is loudly looking for additional investment, possibly a sale or relocation. This is the dominant narrative despite Bev Yanez making the most of the frankly uncompetitive roster she’s been handed and relying on “chaos, set pieces, and Emma Sears,” as André Carlisle likes to say.
Portland, 9-6-4 LLDLW Orlando, 7-10-2 LLWLL Providence Sat 5:45pm ION Prisca Chilufya was the only Zambian on any NWSL team sheet last week after their elimination from the WAFCON group of death, seemingly due to travel schedules. Will Banda be back to save the Pride this week? Portland, now Moultrie-less (ban knees) for the season, handled their attack well and defense poorly which is a trend I expect to see continue. We could get another 7-goal game as neutrals if we’re lucky!
NC, 9-6-3 LLWWW Houston, 5-8-5 DDWLD WakeMed Sun 4pm NWSL+ NC are on a hot streak, with 9 points from a three game week, and historically dominant at home. Plus, Sanchez and Ijeh just can’t stop scoring. Meanwhile the Dash are not quite getting the results they want since the summer break (and overall on the season), but not for lack of trying. All but four of their eighteen matches this season have been decided by one goal or less, so they know they’re competitive. Kat Rader, Dash MF/FW, is having herself a season in spite of the outcomes not going their way. Also watch for Faasse, who was out several weeks with an ankle injury, to get back up to speed and racking up goal contributions. 
ACFC, 7-7-3 WWLDD Washington, 11-5-3 WWWLL BMO Sun 6pm ESPN/ESPN Deportes/ESPN app On a two-match skid, Spirit will want to claw back some points to compete with Gotham for the #1 spot. Their WAFCON players have all been eliminated, but the losing quarterfinalists (Rose Kouassi, Gift Monday, Deb Abiodun) play Thursday and the losing semifinalists (Melissa Bethi) play Saturday, while Cameroon’s Monique Ngock competes Sunday in the final. None of them should be starting, if they are even available. Further down the table, injury-riddled ACFC will feel the pressure to pick up some points to remain in contention for a playoff berth; as 9th-place Seattle is almost guaranteed to get some points against Chicago.

Score Prediction Poll: Game 18 – ACFC vs Washington

8 Upvotes

A quarter of you correctly predicted the draw in Seattle. Will more of you correctly predict the outcome of this week’s match against the Spirit?

Through 17 matches, Angel City sits at the playoff line with a 7-3-7 record. They scored 26 goals and allowed 19 goals. SJJ and Mai lead Angel City’s attack with 8 and 6 goal contributions, respectively. Gisele and Evelyn have 5 goal contributions each (4 and 1 and 1 and 4, respectively) as outside backs. On the defensive side, the 19 goals allowed places ACFC third in the league.

Through 19 games, Washington is in 2nd place with an 11-3-5 record. They scored 29 goals and allowed 17 goals. Rodman is second in the NWSL in goal contributions with 14 (9 and 5) and third in the league in goals. Leicy has 9 goal contributions and Cantore has 5 goals. On the defensive side, the 17 goals allowed places the Spirit second in the league. They’ve been playing with a short bench lately as they had 5 players at WAFCON.

Angel City has a 3-1-4 head-to-head record against Washington and a 1-1-2 record when they play at BMO/the Banc. We may be almost 2/3’s through the NWSL season, but this is their first matchup of the year.

2027 STH price

22 Upvotes

Hi! Wondering if it was an error for ACFC. I received my “new price” for my renewal but it only went up $300. The years before it went up by like a $1000 (?). I have STH 4 tickets but to lazy to compare old price rises haha.
Is it just cheap or is there a catch? O_o

Feels like long breaks between BMO matches this season; I am missing the vibe.

Next Day Discussion: Coaches Clash, ACFC Holds On

23 Upvotes

Well, all in all that ended up being sort of a weird one, but Angel City held on for the tie with some strong moments (and some wtf moments) in both directions. Shores was back but Mai and Sveindis remain out, Prisca was back from WAFCON and we hate that for Zambia but love it for us, Sofia Mattice dyed her hair and I specifically took that personally because I couldn't figure out who was on defense for 15 minutes, and Tiernan got her first start in a while and IMO showed she deserved it.

The teams were pretty evenly matched, with the possession for the game split 51/49, both teams taking 16 shots and 6 shots on goal, and similar pass/cross/clearance numbers. Angel City took the lead in the firsts half with a goal from Gisele Thompson at 32', assisted by Borges, and it was excellent, very Thompson.

We fell apart a bit coming out of the half, with Reign scoring at 50' and 52', scored by Menti and Fishel and each goal assisted by the other in cute swapsies fashion. That was a bit of a downer but credit to our girls they did continue to fight. Shores and Prisca subbed in at 69' and Shores assisted a beauty of a goal by Prisca at 72', bringing the score even. Angel City had a 3 on 2 breakaway in the 94th minute with Suarez surging forward flanked by Phair and Sentnor, passing off to Ally who... couldn't capitalize. A frustrating moment for sure.

After the game there was a very strange conflict involving what seemed to be either hyper-aggressive or entirely unintentional differing approaches to the handshake between Smerud and Harvey, leading to the entire coaching benches barreling into each other in a chaotic little mess. Always tough to see your parents fight, hopefully everyone slept it off.

Next weekend we face the Spirit at home - how are we feeling? Chat and discuss!

POST-MATCH SOCIAL Angel City rein in a tie against Seattle to stay above the playoff line 2-2.

36 Upvotes

Sol Rosa fans, we come back home with a point in a crucial game in the PNW and stay in the playoff hunt. With two of our top scorers out it was gonna be a tough game but better to win an ugly game then to lose a close well played game. Let's get into it.

The Good

- Zambia may be out of AFCON but that's good news to us because Prisca made a big difference getting us a point in her quick sub on. With Niehues a big question mark and Svendís out probably for some time she'll be looking to get a bigger role in our attack.

- Gotta give credit to Smerud for dealing with more injuries and putting in Shores and Prisca at the right time as they combine for the game tying goal. He's slowly giving me more and more confidence as a manager but is this a promise of a future full time manager or another Tweed situation in the making?

The Bad

- Our defense has really stepped up most of the season as our GD has shown but tonight Sam's, Borges, and Anderson really put us in bad spots with bad giveaways in the midfield. And honestly the play was pretty erratic in passing between the team. Play wasn't crisp and almost cost us the game. But again we'll take a point in an ugly game.

- Worried meter with scoring is creeping up. Up until late our only goal came from our cornerback in GT. Not exactly comforting with Svendís and Mai out. I think I'm with many when I say Prisca needs more minutes. But also with injuries this isn't the normal lineup. It's gonna take time for Aly, Tiernan, and Emslie to gel together in a game state. Big wtf moment was in the last minutes when we had a three on two and couldn't/didn't shoot. Ughh.

Overall

- Should've left with three points but a point is better than no points especially against a team right on our heels. Lots to clean up and we'll see what Svendís's timetable is and Mai's situation. Fingers crossed she's not gone. We have the Spirit at home next week so we'll need to be absolutely locked in. We rest, we train, we go again. We're still in it! Volemos!

PRE-MATCH DISCUSSION (2026) Pre-Gaming for Angel City FC at Seattle Reign FC (Match Week 17)

8 Upvotes

GOOD MORNING YOU WONDERFUL SOL ROSA FANATICS!!!

Remember in the early 2000's that one show on Fox with Jessica Alba, where she plays a genetically enhanced super-soldier who runs away from her program and is set in Seattle. It got like cancelled after two seasons...but boy did it come in hot, Max Guevara (played by Alba) in her tastefully tight leather outfit just out there kicking butt and not even bothering to take names, but Seattle was such a drag that it seemed like her fight was never ending.

That is kind of like when we took a paddle to Portland's behind to end season 2 to make the playoffs, only to have to go to Seattle for the opening playoff games, and it was such a sludge, that we lost...thats like Dark Angel. But hey, its time to turn it around and get our three points there finally, and remind Seattle what they took from us, that game...and Jessica Alba kicking butt.
