The Chicago Stars FC tied the Washington Spirit, 1-1, in a road match on Aug. 31 to earn the team’s fifth consecutive draw, establishing a National Women’s Soccer League record. 

Forward Ludmila—who recently scored a hat trick (three goals) in one match—scored the team’s only goal. She has now scored in three consecutive matches, with all goals coming in the second half of those contests.
