That was something we talked about all week, putting the ball in the back of the net, winning our 1v1 battles in those moments, taking care of both boxes, and ultimately, we didn\u2019t do that tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After a sluggish first half in the sun, both teams found the back of the goal early in the second half. Ashley Sanchez and Matsukubo combined, with the latter slipping a perfectly placed through-ball to Evelyn Ijeh, who finished the sequence with the goal in the 48th minute.<\/p>\n<p>Three minutes later, Maiara Niehues got on the right end of an Evelyn Shores\u2019 cross and headed home the equalizer. That\u2019s where the game remained until the North Carolina midfield trio of Ashley Sanchez, Riley Jackson and Matsukubo carved through the Angel City defense for what would be the winning goal.<\/p>\n<p>As time ticked away, Angel City had a pair of clear chances to find the equalizer. Prisca Chilufya\u2019s header in the six-yard box was directed toward North Carolina goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan. Shores had a header off of a corner kick that was easily secured by Sheridan. Then in the 93rd minute, Taylor Suarez found herself in a good spot, but her shot was scuffed as two defenders crowded her on the goal line, and Sheridan would eventually fall on the ball.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Chalk it up as another frustrating night for Angel City coach Alex Straus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn all these games, I think that we do enough to win and that\u2019s the frustrating part and we don\u2019t get a point,\u201d Straus said. \u201cWe have enough chances today to win. You look at the numbers again and I\u2019m bringing them up and I\u2019m getting tired of myself talking about it, but that\u2019s the thing that we can fix.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=11233\">Angels\u2019 Oswald Peraza finds success returning to old habits<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the structure and the organization today is good. The first goal and the second goal, they have quality up front \u2026We have some big, big, big chances at the end. We should have scored. We are structured, but we need to do more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Angel City heads into the summer break on 13 points, coming off as up-and-down a first 11 games as any team could have. Teams have a mandatory week off June 8-14. The break for the men\u2019s FIFA World Cup is June 15-28.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Angel City will return to action July 3 at home against the Orlando Pride.<\/p>\n<p>Angel City opened the season with three consecutive wins and went into the April break with a 3-1 record. Since returning, the club has undergone growing pains, losing their first three games and finishing a busy month of May with a 1-4-2 record, slumping down to 12th place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think maybe it\u2019s Houston at home (March 27, 2-1 win), Orlando away (April 3, 2-1 loss) and maybe one more game, but I can\u2019t remember it, that we deserve to lose. The rest we deserved to win, when you look at the numbers behind,\u201d Straus said. \u201cI\u2019m a strong believer, over time, that will show itself on a scoreboard and we need to be consistent showing it on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve not been played out and today, we\u2019re the better team, again, and we lose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the back end of the schedule, Angel City\u2019s turnaround will have to come on the road. Of the final 19 games, 11 will be on the road.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe felt like we had so much momentum the first few games of the season and we\u2019ve kind of lost that,\u201d Gorden said. \u201cJune will be all about refining ourselves and our system a little bit more and also just finding that belief again because that\u2019s what we need.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=11231\">USC baseball routs Texas A&amp;M to force rematch for regional title<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maiara Niehues scores in the 51st minute, but the Courage answer with goals from Evelyn Ijeh and Manaka Matsukubo to hand Angel City a 2-1 loss at BMO Stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11236,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-angel-city-football-club"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
