San Diego Wave FC Played Angel City FC to a Scoreless Draw at BMO Stadium
May 24, 2024 - National Women's Soccer League (NWSL)
San Diego Wave FC News Release
LOS ANGELES - San Diego Wave FC (3-4-3, 12 points) earned a 0-0 draw against Angel City FC (3-5-2, 11 points) at BMO Stadium on Thursday night. The shutout marks Wave's goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan's league-leading fourth shutout of the season.
San Diego started the first half testing Angel City's defense, creating 13 shots with four shots on goal. The best chance came in the eighth minute when midfielder Savannah McCaskill applied pressure in the box to force a Los Angeles turnover and take a shot on goal that was saved by goalkeeper Didi Haracic.
The Wave nearly found the game-winner in the dying minutes when forward Jaedyn Shaw's inswinging set piece into the box found the head of midfielder Emily van Egmond. The Australian international hit a header that was saved and bounced off the crossbar before falling to the head of forward Alex Morgan that was saved by Haracic to keep the game level.
Next on the schedule: NWSL heads into an international window before San Diego Wave FC returns home to face Orlando Pride on Friday, June 7 at Snapdragon Stadium. The match will be broadcast on Prime Sports with kickoff slated for 7 p.m. PT. Tickets can be found here.
