Stoppage-Time Goal Lifts Pride to 1-0 Victory Over Houston Dash
June 7, 2025 - National Women's Soccer League (NWSL)
Orlando Pride News Release
ORLANDO, Fla. - A stoppage-time goal from Cori Dyke helped Orlando Pride (7-3-1, 22 points) secure a dramatic 1-0 victory over the Houston Dash (3-6-2, 11 points) at Inter&Co Stadium on Friday night. The win extended the Pride's home unbeaten streak against Houston to five games and saw the Club climb into second place in the NWSL standings.
The decisive moment came with the final kick of the match, as Dyke fired home a right-footed strike to seal the victory for Orlando. Dyke's goal-her first in her professional career since being selected in the 2024 NWSL Draft-also marked the Pride's third stoppage-time game-changer this season and their second match-winning goal in added time. It stands as the second-latest, game-winning strike in the league this year.
Goalkeeper Anna Moorhouse made four saves on the night to earn her fourth clean sheet of the season and bring her career tally to 200 regular season saves.
Tonight's match also marked defender Kylie Nadaner's 100th appearance for the Pride across all competitions. With this milestone, Nadaner joins club legend Marta as only the second player in the Pride's history to reach the century mark.
