Kim Little, OL Reign player, against Kansas City, July 2022 (@OL Reign)

On a series of 4 matches without defeat, OL Reign suffered the law of Kansas City during the 12th day of NWSL. The American franchise of Olympique Lyonnais slips to 6th place.
It had been more than a month since OL Reign had experienced the bitter taste of defeat in the NWSL. Beaten on June 4 on the lawn of Chicago (1-0), the American franchise of Olympique Lyonnais suffered the same fate on the night of Sunday to Monday against Kansas City. This movement of players from Laura Harvey turned to their opponent’s advantage on a converted penalty in the 18th minute by Lo’eau LaBonta.
A result that obviously does not suit Tziarra King’s teammates. With this setback, they are now 6th, 3 points from the podium, but above all, threatened by the Angel City Football Club. The latter currently has 17 points, like OL Reign, but above all one game less.
A new shock to come
With only 11 goals scored in 12 rounds, the partners of Lauren Barnes will have to rectify the situation in the next match, precisely against the Los Angeles club on July 31. A new poster against a direct competitor that absolutely must not be missed or risk getting into trouble for the rest of the season and for qualifying for the play-offs.
