NWSL roundup: Dash come away with draw vs. Current
Maria Lysaker-USA TODAY Sports

Amanda West scored in the 71st minute to allow the host Houston Dash to come away with a 1-1 draw against the Kansas City Current on Sunday.

West found the back of the net after Houston (1-3-3, six points) had plenty of time to mull over a 1-0 deficit, as the match was suspended for four hours due to inclement weather.

Temwa Chawinga put Kansas City (5-0-2, 17 points) in front with a goal in the 24th minute, but the Current struggled to get past Dash goalkeeper Jane Campbell for the remainder of the match. Campbell finished with 12 saves, matching a NWSL regular-season, single-match record, according to OptaJack.

Campbell was especially strong in the match's waning moments, turning away Claire Hutton in the second minute of second-half stoppage time before preventing Michelle Cooper from scoring four minutes later.

Pride 1, Racing Louisville 0

Orlando got a goal from Barbra Banda early in the first half and never looked back to blank visiting Louisville.

Banda scored in the 17th minute as the Pride (5-0-3, 18 points) jumped to the top of the standings thanks to their fifth straight win.

After Banda put a shot past her, Racing Louisville goalkeeper Katie Lund buckled down, keeping the visitors close by stopping another Banda attempt in the second minute of first-half stoppage time.
