Lexington SC Women Enter Winter Break Undefeated Through 14 Matches

ARLINGTON, Texas - The Lexington SC women closed out the first half of the 2025/26 Gainbridge Super League season Saturday afternoon with a 1-1 draw, remaining unbeaten through the first half of the season.

After dominating for the first 28 minutes of play, Lexington was rewarded with the opening goal of the contest. In her first start of the season, Amber Nguyen delivered a lovely corner kick to the feet of Allison Pantuso, and the center-back smashed it for her second goal of the campaign.

Dallas equalized in the 52' minute following a handball called against Lexington right outside the top of the box. Chioma Ubogagu went for goal on the resulting free kick and found the back of the net.

Two mainstays in Mac Hemmi's Starting XI all season long, Hannah Johnson and Emina Ekić, both subbed on for LSC midway through the second half, and Ekić made an instant impact.

The midfielder earned a penalty kick in the 70' minute and took it herself, but the Dallas goalkeeper extended spectacularly to deny the reigning Player of the Year of her third goal this season.

Lexington continued to threaten after the missed opportunity, breaking Trinity FC's lines and creating space for shots.

However, the match ended 1-1 with Lexington leading in expected goals (1.55-1.02), shots (13-6), shots on target (4-3), big chances (3-0) and possession (59%-41%) among other statistical categories.

The draw marks LSC's fourth straight as the club heads into the winter break with a 5W-0L-9D record.

Final stats and post-match quotes from Head Coach Masaki Hemmi, goalkeeper Kat Asman and midfielder Tati Fung are attached.
