PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) 鈥� Sofia Huerta and Maddie Dahlien scored and the Seattle Reign snapped a five-game winless streak with a 2-1 victory over the Boston Legacy on Friday night in the National Women’s Soccer League.
Huerta converted a penalty kick in the 11th minute, ending a 511-minute stretch without a goal for the Reign (4-2-4). Seattle was awarded the penalty when Boston’s Jorelyn Carabal铆 was called for a handball in the box.
Dahlien added a goal in the 51st, scoring off a long pass into the box from Madison Curry.
It appeared that Boston (2-4-5) had closed the gap in the 87th with a goal from A茂ssata Traor茅, but a video review showed she was offside. Traor茅 eventually scored in stoppage time.
The game was played at Centreville Bank Stadium, marking the first time Rhode Island had hosted a professional women’s soccer match.
The Legacy’s home this season, Gillette Stadium, is unavailable because it will host World Cup matches starting next month. The Legacy will play seven times in Pawtucket.
