Canadian keeper part of NWSL record chase

-

Canadian goalkeeper Sabrina D’Angelo and the North Carolina Courage are on a record roll. The National Women’s Soccer League team’s 3-0 win over the Orlando Pride last weekend was its 16th, tying the U.S. pro women’s soccer record for regular-season victories for a second straight campaign. With two games remaining, league-leading North Carolina (16-1-5) is one point shy of tying the NWSL regularsea­son points record of 54 set by Seattle in 2014. And with its goal count at 47, North Carolina is four away from becoming the highest-scoring outfit in league history. Seattle also holds that record (50 goals) from 2014. “The style of play we put out on the field every week is consistent and it shows,” D’Angelo said.
