Attacking Third: A CBS Sports Women's Soccer Podcast

Sandra Herrera and Lisa Roman recap the weekend slate of NWSL matches. The Chicago Red Stars welcome back forward Mallory Pugh after being out under concussion protocol for her first regular-season game. Pugh gets an assist and two goals over Orlando Pride. The two California expansion sides each take home three points and top the standings. San Diego Wave sits in first place after an Alex Morgan goal lifts the Wave over North Carolina. An own goal from Kansas City gives Angel City the edge. Plus, Louisville climbs the standings to third place after a Lauren Milliet goal from Jess McDonald - her 28th career, league-leading assist - lifts Racing over Gotham FC. The newest rivalry in the NWSL sees OL Reign and Washington Spirit split points after a scoreless draw. Rachel Daly of the Dash makes it look easy at Providence Park helping Houston to a 2-0 win over the Thorns. Full recap, analysis and more.
