Kansas City v Houston
Kansas City Current top Houston Dash 2-0 with Chawinga's brace
The Kansas City Current, led by Temwa Chawinga's two goals, defeated the Houston Dash 2-0 at CPKC Stadium on Friday.
The match remained scoreless through the first half before Chawinga broke the deadlock in the 77th minute with a right-footed shot from the center of the box. She doubled her tally just three minutes later, securing the win for Kansas City.
Houston struggled to find its rhythm throughout the game despite several attempts on goal. Diana Ordóñez had a notable chance in the 21st minute but was denied by Kansas City's goalkeeper Adrianna Franch. Houston's Natalie Jacobs also saw her effort saved in the bottom left corner late in the second half.
