In this week’s iteration of Anatomy of a Goal, we’re taking a look at a team that has been in playoff position for the entire season: the Washington Spirit. The team has weathered multiple challenges this year, including star forward Trinity Rodman‘s monthslong injury recovery. Now, she’s back to full capacity, having logged her first 90-minute performance of the year in the Spirit’s 2-0 win over the Reign in Week 19, and the Spirit are downright dangerous. Rodman scored two impressive goals, and we’ll hone in on the first, which ended up being the eventual game winner.
As always, let’s check out the goal in full before we break it down.
