Gotham, Spirit play to goalless draw

Gotham FC 0-0 Washington Spirit

HARRISON, NJ–Despite being down a woman for an hour, Gotham FC held on for a goalless draw against Washington Spirit at Sports Illustrated Stadium on Saturday. Gotham were reduced to ten after Geyse was sent off for a poor tackle against Gabbi Carle in the 30th minute after a review by VAR.

Despite the one-woman advantage, Washington were unable to make the most of it. There were no real shots for the Spirit after the red card. Indeed, Gotham had a great chance to snatch all three points towards the end on a counter attack, but the shot was saved by Aubrey Kingsbury.
