Houston Dash can't overcome early deficit in road loss to Orlando Pride

The Houston Dash suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of the Orlando Pride on Sunday night at Inter.co Stadium. The game, which was delayed by nearly 90 minutes due to inclement weather in Orlando, saw the Dash struggle from the start.

Houston fell behind just 14 minutes into the match and the deficit only widened as the game progressed. By halftime, the Pride had doubled their lead, and they pushed it to three goals in front near the midpoint of the second half.

Kiki Van Zanten was the lone goal scorer for the Dash, netting her fifth of the season in the 72nd minute with an assist from Khyah Harper. Orlando's goalkeepers were unscathed as Leah Klenke, Barbara Banda, and Haley McCutcheon all found the back of the net.
