Racing ended up winning comfortably and hopefully this is the start of better things to come. Utah was overwhelmed in the 2nd half, but Racing was the impetus for it.

Lund-7: Made some solid saves and her defense let her down on the goal she allowed.

Pickett-8: The outer backs ended up with bookends assists. It's hard to pick which was better.

Erceg-8: Commanding at the back.

Wright-8: Made some key interceptions and looks to be back to her best.

Milliet-8: Unlucky not to score to go with her assist.

Howell-8: Jae and Taylor kept Utah penned in well.

Flint-8: Keeps improving and the Racing midfield looks really solid now.

DeMelo-8: It was her best match in a while, so hopefully this kickstarts a good run of form.

Kanu-8: Scored on a beautiful header. Her improvement has been so important.

Bahr-7: Her shot led to the first DeMelo goal.

Borges-7: Looked really solid in her first start.

Bonus: Turner/Sears-7: Nice goals from the rookies.
