Defending champions Gotham edge past Seattle to set up semi-final with Kansas City

Referee for this one is the man who took charge of the 2026 NWSL Challenge Cup. Post to run near post for the home side. And the slice on goal! one nil Gotham leads A horror show for Jordan Bug! And inside four minutes, the deadlock is broken. And after scoring the goal last week, that took the rain into the playoffs from the first corner. Well, this ball in is really good from Jaden Shaw because it's driven hard to that near post. And Bug just last minute tries to swing at the ball. I think you have to go with your body and just deflect it back in the direction it goes. This is Jordan Bug. They advanced a good 10 yards up the field. And it's Fishlock with a curling effort so close. Good strength from Maddie Mercado, she's got options left and right. That close from Sally Menti. And behind it goes, the touch was too late, and a goal kick, and that's it! The defending champions are through!
