The Orlando Pride are like a different team on the road and it's not a very good team. Although there have been dominant performances that didn't result in wins, the last two have been poor outings that the Pride were never in. It's maddening, but it's to be expected from a young team. We break down a difficult night for Orlando at North Carolina on Saturday and select our Player of the Match (well, one of us does). Megan Montefusco got a new deal that essentially extends her time in

Because last Wednesday's Challenge Cup match at Gotham FC was canceled (which we didn't even mention), the Orlando Pride came off consecutive shutout losses and had to host the defending champion Portland Thorns. What might seem to be a recipe for disaster was anything but that as the Pride rallied from a goal down to beat the mighty Thorns, 3-1. We talk through the game, which Dave got to see in person for a change, and selected our Player of the Match. We also discussed Adriana being

The Orlando Pride were shut out for the second straight match when they faced the Dash in Houston on Saturday night and this time it wasn't a case of wiping the floor with the opponents except for failing to score. This time the Dash were clearly better on the night and the Pride slipped back into some of their poor habits from last year. But hey, rebuilding is a process and the mentality of the team seems to be strong. It will need to be in order to deal with the two matches coming up this

The Orlando Pride went from beating the league's best team to losing to the league's bottom team in just one week. That's kind of what we've got to deal with while this young team grows, but the positives were there. The Pride completely dominated play and created a ton of chances but the club continues to struggle in front of goal, and it didn't help matters that Alyssa Naeher brought her 'A' game to Saturday night's proceedings. We break down a

The Orlando Pride have done what seven other NWSL teams failed to do — beat the Washington Spirit. The Pride's 2-1 home victory over the Spirit on Saturday night raised eyebrows all over the NWSL, but it is exactly what Seb Hines and his players expected to happen. The Pride have shown a remarkable amount of confidence over the course of the last four games — all without a loss (3-0-1) — and it suddenly doesn't seem implausible that the team that began the season 0-4-0 could actually make a

The Orlando Pride took a brief pause from earning points in NWSL play to completely rotate the lineup and get smacked down 4-2 at Washington in the Challenge Cup one week ago. That wasn't as fun as seeing Tori (not Taylor, even though I slipped up and called her that) Hansen score a wicked cool backheel goal or Summer Yates sending Ally Watt in for a second Pride goal. Most of the moments in between were far less fun. We discuss the match and the lineup and select our Player of the Match. But

The Orlando Pride must have enjoyed that win in San Diego, because they went and did it again on Saturday. This time the victim was winless Racing Louisville, and we're happy to break down a victory for the second week in a row. The Pride also signed forward Julie Doyle to a new contract and we discuss what that means for the club and for Doyle, and it's a bummer we won't see her on the pitch for a while longer. After Dave helpfully reminded me that we hadn't given out our

losing streak to start the 2023 season, the five-game 2023 winless skid in all competitions, the five-game losing streak in league play dating back to last year, and the 11-match winless streak in all competitions (0-9-2) dating back to Aug. 20 of last season. The Orlando offense showed up and the defense conceded only once in a game for the first time in the 2023 NWSL regular season in a 3-1 road win over San Diego Wave FC. We are happily analyzing a game for the first time this year and we select

The Orlando Pride played two matches since our last show, and that gave the team twice as many opportunities to hurt us. I'm sorry to say that the Pride took full advantage of those opportunities, losing their grasp on a win in the 99th minute in their first NWSL Challenge Cup game of 2023 and then getting blanked on the road by the league's only other winless team. We're here to talk you through the 1-1 draw against the North Carolina Courage that had some positives — the play of Carly

The Orlando Pride just keep setting league records. They aren't necessarily the NWSL records you want to set and then continue to break, but Orlando doesn't seem concerned with the details. After all, the Pride have conceded three straight goals that each broke the league's record for latest goal conceded. Two of those came in Orlando's 2-0 home loss Saturday against NJ/NY Gotham FC at Exploria Stadium. We break down what we saw of the game — and rant about Paramount+ over what we
