Utah Royals FC News Release
HERRIMAN, Utah - Utah Royals FC (2-11-6, 12 pts, 14th in the NWSL) returns to Sandy for the first time in three matches to host the Houston Dash (6-8-5, 23 pts, 9th in the NWSL) on Sunday, September 14 at 4:00 p.m. MT.
Utah secured a point on the road after a 1-1 draw against the North Carolina Courage last Saturday night at First Horizon Stadium. The result marks a third consecutive unbeaten road match for the Royals, following a draw with Gotham FC and a win over Portland. The draw was salvaged in stoppage time, as Paige Monaghan scored her second goal in as many matches in the 90+4th minute, just moments after a penalty kick in the 89th minute had put North Carolina ahead.
Utah remained unbeaten against the Dash during the 2024 season. The first meeting took place on April 27 in Sandy and ended in a 0-0 draw. The return fixture on August 31 saw the Royals come away with a 3-1 victory. When the two sides met earlier this year on April 25 in Houston, the Dash came out on top with a 1-0 win, courtesy of an 80th-minute goal.
