Gotham FC vs Bay FC: How to watch, time, and more of their first matchup
- Gotham FC will play against Bay FC for the first time
- Here is how to watch the game and more information
NJ/NY Gotham FC is probably still on a high after the 2-1 win over the Chicago Red Stars. Lynn Williams broke the NWSL scoring record while Ella Stevens secured three points with her goal. It was also the first time the team scored more than one goal this season. Ideally, that match will be a spark that leads to more goals and wins.
The Bats will travel across the country again when they face Bay FC for the first time. The new team currently sits in 11th place with nine points. They recently beat San Diego Wave FC, ending a five-game losing streak. Hence, the California team will also hope their win sparks a winning streak. Such a combination can lead to a fantastic match.
As mentioned, this will be the first time Gotham FC will play against Bay FC. This moment is great for the NWSL, for it reminds fans of the growth of the league and game. It will also be exciting to face a new team. They have some star power with players like Asisat Oshoala and Deyna Castellanos. However, with some of the team’s struggles in the inaugural season, the NJ/NY team has a chance to steal three points.
Meanwhile, Williams will be looking to continue her fantastic form. Shockingly, she was not called up to the USWNT for the June friendlies, despite her form. Will she utilize that and score again? This will be something to keep an eye on throughout the match.
