THE SPIRIT ADVANCE🔥⁣
⁣
After a hard fought match, the Washington Spirit are heading to a second straight NWSL Championship following their 2-0 win over the Portland Thorns. ⚽⁣
⁣
Gift Monday scored first for the Spirit, nailing a beautiful goal in the 27th minute. Her strong score was followed up by Croix Bethune, who put Washington up 2 in the 83rd minute. ⁣
⁣
But who will be their Championship opponent? TBD. The Spirit could face either the 2024 champions the Orlando Pride or the 2023 champions Gotham FC – who face off tomorrow in the league's second semifinal match. ⁣
