The Chicago Stars have not had much to celebrate this season – only one win in their first fifteen matches.
On the road and down 0-3 to Seattle Reign at Lumen Field, it was looking like another defeat.
After Jess Fishlock, Jordyn Huitema, and Emeri Adames scored three goals in the first 46 minutes of the match, it was looking like three points for the home side.
In the 72nd minute, Ludmila finally got Chicago on the board. It got even more interesting when Camryn Biegalski made it 2-3 in the 80th minute.
With the Stars desperate to salvage a point, USWNT and NWSL legend, Alyssa Naeher came into the box for the final sequence of the game…
Only two goalkeepers have scored in league play ever, and they were both Portland Thorns, Michelle Betos and Bella Bixby, respectively.
Add Naeher to the list as she somehow found the equalizer and magic in the last seconds of the game.
In her 200th NWSL appearance, Naeher did something she had never done in her illustrious career, score a goal! She has already accomplished everything in her career, but now will have this to add.
This is a moment that she’ll remember for the rest of her life.
The Legend of Alyssa Naeher will live on forever.
