Our coverage was in San Jose Friday for Bay FC and Saturday for the Quakes. There was a match Sunday at St. Mary’s College in Moraga for The Town FC.
Doug at Soccer Bay Area has the summary of Bay FC’s loss to Orlando in which the home team almost stole a point, possibly three, from the top team in the NWSL. It was Barbara Banda’s goal late in the game that made the home team end up with zero to show despite a stellar defensive effort.
