Racing 1 - Red Stars 1 Player Ratings

Racing’s chances of advancing in the Challenge Cup took a big blow tonight, but the team showed spirit in grabbing a point back from a losing position. The team had some really good stretches in the match where they dictated play, but couldn’t quite find the clinical finish needed on most of their shots. Ekic’s goal was a stunner however.
Lund-6: Most of her saves where routine, but the one great one she made ultimately found the foot of Kowalski.
Fox-7: Joined the attack quite a bit and lead the team in passes in the final third.
Merrick-6: Not a great night, with a fairly low pass completion percentage of 59%, but won 6 of her 8 duels.
Bonner-6: Had a solid night, and lead the team in fouls won with 4.
Lester-7: Drove forward effectively on a couple of completed dribbles and led the team with 3 clearances.
Howell-8: Even though she was subbed off, had a really good night and looks more comfortable each game. Had team highs in Tackles (5) and Interceptions (4).
Olofsson-8: Had an almost perfect night passing, completing 96% of her passes and 100% in the final third. Only lost possession 3 times, compared to winning possession 6 times and was the only player with a positive ratio in that statistic.
Kizer-7: Had 4 shots and 2 on targets, but neither particularly dangerous. Still was involved in the attack quite a bit.
Milliet-7: Another solid start for Lo, and seemed to drive the team forward in the 2nd half.
Davis-7: Had several crosses in the first half, but couldn’t make any of them pay off.
McDonald-6: Led the team with 6 Aerial Duels won.
Ekic-8: Couldn’t have hit her goal any better. It was an unstoppable free kick.
