& w/ Prince & Hopkins:
β½ On Prince's goal, "that exact goal was what we do every week in training" - Hopkins
β½ On their role as substitutes, "this is the most unselfish team. I feel so much support when I step on the field." - Hopkins
β½ On playing @ CPKC, "our fans are what keep us going" - Prince
Post-game presser takeaways w/ Vlatko:
β½ Timing of a comeback win like this primes KC perfectly for likely playoff match scenarios
β½ On match physicality, "this is who we are", "this is how we train"
β½ On Debinha's goal, "We needed a moment of brilliance...she's first on the list who can to do it"
π y'all smell that? It's called a comeback π€
KC Current steam roll the San Diego Wave in the second half to win the second water war of the '25 campaign!

HALFTIME: KC Current 0, San Diego Wave 1
KC heads to the locker room down a goal at the half for just the second time this season.
45 + 7": Izzy launches one over the bar in the final moments of this first half. KC still getting looks but lacking quality and have yet to force a save from Wave's Sheridan.
KC 0, SD 1
#KCBaby
45 + 2": π¨ card issued to Michelle Cooper.

40': Bia taken down while dribbling in a 1v2 yet is somehow called for foul..? Make it make sense, referee?!
KC 0, SD 1
#KCBaby
37': Wave's Corley is playing exceedingly well today causing major problems in the midfield for the Current. Consistently playing a role in quality build up play and providing San Diego look after look.
KC 0, SD 1
