Bay FC News Release


SAN JOSE, Calif. - Bay FC fell 1-0 to the Kansas City Current on Saturday night at PayPal Park. Temwa Chawinga scored the lone goal in the match for Current in the 35th minute to secure the win. Bay FC have two matches remaining in the regular season. Bay FC will play host to the North Carolina Courage in their regular-season home finale on Oct. 19 before concluding their inaugural campaign on the road against the Houston Dash on Nov. 2.

Playoff Picture

Bay FC will finish Week 23 of the NWSL regular season in either eighth or ninth place in the NWSL standings, pending the results of Sunday's match between Racing Louisville FC and the Washington Spirit. If Racing loses or draws on the road against the Spirit, Bay FC will remain in eighth place. A Louisville win against the Spirit would see Bay FC and Louisville finish the weekend both tied on 28 points. With the first tiebreaker being goal differential, Racing would move to eighth and Bay FC would drop to the ninth spot in the standings with two matches left on the regular season schedule.
