Hannah Seabert makes five saves in Angel City's scoreless draw with Utah
The last place Utah Royals were held scoreless at home by 11th-place Angel City on Friday night. The game was a meeting between the NWSL's two least in-form teams. The Royals are winless in their last 11 and Angel City has not won in their last eight. The closest the visitors came to scoring was when Angel City midfielder Kennedy Fuller clipped the top of the crossbar from a long-range shot in the 54th minute. The Royals outshot Angel City 14-10 and had more shots on goal, 5-2. Utah's two best chances came from set pieces in the first half. Royals forward Mina Tanaka failed to score with a header from six yards out on both occasions. Angel City starting goalkeeper Angelina Anderson didn't play because of a lower leg injury. Danish goalkeeper Hannah Seabert made her NWSL debut in her place. She recorded five saves and a clean sheet. The tie keeps the Royals (1-11-4) in last place in the NWSL, now one point behind the Chicago Stars in 13th. Angel City (4-7-5) is still winless under Alex Straus, tying three and losing three since he took over as head coach in June.

Kennedy Fuller scores early for Angel City in draw with Portland
PORTLAND, Ore. — Reilyn Turner's goal pulled the Portland Thorns into a 1-1 tie with Angel City in the National Women's Soccer League on Friday night. Kennedy Fuller scored in the ninth minute to give Angel City the early lead. But Turner scored her first regular-season NWSL goal in the 30th minute, tapping in a bouncing corner in the Thorns' home opener. Angel City goalkeeper Angelina Anderson jumped to push Hina Sugita's strike from distance up and over the crossbar in the 83rd minute. The Thorns were routed 4-1 in their season opener last weekend at the Kansas City Current. Portland is missing its biggest playmaker, Olympian Sophia Wilson, who is on maternity leave. Wilson, whose maiden name is Smith, was married in the offseason and took her husband's name. Angel City played to a 1-1 draw at home against San Diego in its opener last weekend. The team is without forward Sydney Leroux, who announced she is taking time off to focus on her mental health. Angel City defender Sarah Gorden reached the 10,000 career regular-season minutes milestone during the match.
