Boston Legacy FC took the field at Gillette Stadium for the last time and managed a 2-1 victory against Racing Louisville FC.
The win put the Legacy (9-14-5) in 12th place with 32 points.
Several of the usual starters had only recently returned from international duty and were either on the bench or did not dress for Friday’s match.
Head coach Filipa Patão had her team in a 4-4-2 formation. Laurel Ivory started in the net behind Lilly Reale, Deja Davis, LaÃs Araújo, and Bianca St-Georges on the defensive line. Aleigh Gambone, Annie Karich, Alba Caño, and Sarah Schupansky took the midfield. Amanda Gutierres and Sammy Smith were the two forwards.
Here are four thoughts from the game.
