LOS ANGELES – Riley Tiernan lifted Angel City Football Club to a 2-1 victory over the Houston Dash Friday night before 13,896 fans at BMO Stadium. Tiernan’s game-winning goal extends ACFC’s winning streak to three, adding to the buzz that the club’s fifth season in the league may be its best yet.

This is the first time Angel City has won three straight regular-season games, and it's the eighth team in the NWSL to do so. After struggling in the first half, ACFC seemed to find its rhythm after half-time. "One of the main things we noticed [in the second half] was our energy.

That's one of the main things we always say, like 'control the controllables, and I think just wanting it and protecting our home field and not allowing someone to come in and take that away from us. We just made it a point to be more energetic and win first and second balls. Sveindís putting the ball in the net in the first minute really helped us to get some confidence and continue to play," said Tiernan on the shift during the second half.

In the 47th minute, Sveindís Jónsdóttir’s left-footed shot from outside the box to the top left corner brought the home side back to life. The goal follows her performance against Bay FC last week , where she was involved in all three of Angel City’s scores, netting two goals and one assist.
