The NJ/NY Gotham FC (Wom) squared off against the Chicago Red Stars (Wom) in an intra-league NWSL battle that saw the Gotham emerge victorious with a 3-1 win.

Statistically, both teams showed a great deal of aggression, with Gotham FC committing 9 fouls to the Red Stars' 12. This mirrored the number of shots taken, with Gotham having 12 in total (7 on target and 5 off target) and Chicago taking 12 shots as well (5 on target and 7 off target). However, the difference in precision was clear as Gotham managed to convert more of their on-target opportunities into goals, thus earning the win.

In the midfield, the game was relatively even, with corner kicks slightly in favor of the Red Stars, while offsides were slightly more frequent for the Red Stars, indicating that they were more ambitious (or perhaps too eager) in their attacking play.

Substitutions also painted a picture of the game flow, with the Red Stars making one more substitution than Gotham. This suggests the team was looking for fresh legs or tactical changes to turn the tide of the match.

The standout point, however, was the scoring efficiency shown by Gotham FC. With three goals from seven shots on target, while the Red Stars managed just one goal from the same amount of shots on target, shows a significant difference in the quality of finishing between the two sides. Two assists from Gotham prove that teamwork was likely a key factor in their effective goal-scoring.

Finally, the goalkeeping performances of both teams must be recognized. Despite conceding three goals, Red Stars' goalkeeper made more saves than her counterpart at Gotham, suggesting a higher frequency of dangerous shots from the Gotham side.

In conclusion, although the match seemed evenly contested on paper in most categories, Gotham FC's superior precision in front of goal proved to be the decisive factor in the match.
