Defence:
Coming into the final off of two straight shutouts Gotham must keep that streak going. Portland has a plethora of attacking options including national team regulars. Cudjo is going to have her hands full. The new addition of Allie Long will definitely help take the pressure off.
Didi Haracic on point:
Sheridan looks to be practicing but for me this is Didi's game. After a game where she gave up 3 goals to a very talented attacking North Carolina team she's given up only 1 goal in three remaining games. She's earned the right to see this tournament out. Although the defence has kept her work to a minimum she's shined when called upon and proved she can start at this level.
Need a hero:
Facing a Portland team that can score at will Gotham has to put a lot of players behind the ball. Goals are going to have to come on counter attacks and free kicks. It's going to take an individual moment of brilliance to win this game. Question is who is it gonna be?
Soccer over Gotham Prediction:
Gotham 2-1.
