Angel City ends winning streak, falls 2-1 against Orlando Pride
ACFC’s winning streak ends in Week 4 of the NWSL after failing to pull ahead in Orlando.
Apr 3, 2026; Orlando, Florida, USA; Angel City FC midfielder Kennedy Fuller (17) takes a free kick in the second half against the Orlando Pride at Inter&Co Stadium. ORLANDO, Fla. – Angel City’s winning streak came to an end with a 2-1 loss on the road against the Orlando Pride on Friday night.
Gisele Thompson’s goal in stoppage time wasn’t enough to overcome the brace scored by Orlando’s Haley McCutcheon. “This is a difficult result for us to allow them to score in 90-plus, because we do feel like that is a mentality thing, which is what we've been working on,” said ACFC captain Sarah Gorden. “So it is really disappointing.
” Angel City (3-0-1) fell to second in the league’s table with nine points. Orlando (2-2-1) now sits in sixth with eight points. It was scoreless at halftime.
Orlando's Barbra Banda looked to get behind Angel City's defense but was unable to capitalize on any chances. Anchored by a well-rested Gorden, Los Angeles completed 6 tackles and won 55% of ground duels before heading to the locker room. The visitors maintained 66% possesion but failed to find a footing in their attack, creating zero shots on target despite frequently finding space in the final third.
