Brooklyn, NY - Brooklyn Football Club (Brooklyn FC) women fell 0-2 to league-leading Lexington SC on Saturday afternoon at Maimonides Park. The visitors struck early in the 12th minute when winger McKenzie Weinert finished from the center of the box into the top right corner. Lexington doubled their advantage in the 20th minute as forward Addie McCain slotted a low shot into the bottom left corner after capitalizing on a cross from Weinert.

Brooklyn created several chances through forwards Rebecca Cooke, Catherine Zimmerman, and Sofia Lewis, but couldn't find a breakthrough against Lexington's organized back line. Despite a strong second-half push, Brooklyn's comeback efforts fell short against the unbeaten league leaders.

Daugherty produced key saves (14', 69') to keep it within reach.

Tengarrinha's View

On facing the league leaders and preparation:

"They're a quality, well-coached side, and they've earned their spot at the top. We prepared all week to disrupt their rhythm, and on another day, the margins tilt our way and we take something from the match."

On bouncing back vs. Spokane:

"We'll approach Spokane with the same spirit and energy. The last three games we've shown big improvement, and we'll go into it to win."
