Despite a hard-fought battle in the NWSL Challenge Cup, the women of OL Reign and Portland Thorns failed to convert their chances, resulting in a goalless stalemate on 06 August 2023.

OL Reign displayed an offensive dominance, with significantly higher total shots (8 shots on target and 5 off target) compared to the Thorns’ meager 3 on-target and 1 off-target efforts. This data indicates a more aggressive attacking approach from the home team, however, lack of proper finishing and precision cost them the opportunity to score.

On the defensive front, both teams performed well, with no red or yellow cards being issued throughout the match, hinting at a game controlled well by the officials and also a reflection of the disciplined play from both sides.

The game witnessed a heavy reliance on set pieces, as indicated by the number of corner kicks implemented. There were 6 from OL Reign and 4 from the Portland Thorns, but none led to any goal.

OL Reign's committed 10 fouls whereas Portland Thorns minorly trailed with 8 fouls. It seems that OL Reign’s slightly more aggressive and physical approach did not necessarily give them an advantage.

Regarding substitutions, Portland Thorns made an extra change, suggesting they wanted to diversify their tactic or overcome fatigue during the game. However, this did not materially affect the game from a scoring perspective. Lastly, both teams did an excellent job on managing offsides, with only 3 total offsides for the entire match.

In conclusion, the statistical data indicates that OL Reign had a statistically dominant performance in terms of attacks. However, both teams showed strong and disciplined defensive efforts, causing the game to end in a scoreless draw. The key factors that determined the outcome were the offensive inefficiency, particularly from OL Reign’s side and the staunch defensive performances from both sides.
