In Summer Cup action at Inter&Co Stadium, Julie Doyle scored a late-game equalizer in the 82nd minute. Summer Yates connects with Celia from midfield on an outside run deep in the attacking third. Celia opposes her defender 1v1, beating her into the box and serving a low cross in front of the goal to Julie Doyle. With one touch, Doyle redirects the ball on the ground to the far post, side-netting for the 2-2 equalizer. Julie Doyle: "I saw that Celia was getting a lot of success on that wing, and if you know Celia, she can serve a ball on the dime. So I knew I just had to hold my run a little bit and not close my own space, and I knew she was going to put it right where I wanted it, and that's exactly what she did. She beat her player, put it on the carpet and all I had to do was guide it into the goal." In the match: Orlando Pride's Alex Kerr scored to tie the game at 1-1 in the first half. The Pride earned two points in the Summer Cup by winning the end-of-regulation shootout, 5-4.
