1 - The official Bluesky page for Stats Perform's North American soccer coverage, brought to you by OptaJack. Illuminating.
3 - Saturday was the third time GothamFC held an opponent without a shot on target in an #NWSL match in 2025 (regular season & playoffs), something the other 13 teams achieved just twice combined. Unbreakable.
November 23, 2025 at 5:16 PM
15 - Gotham FC's Jaelin Howell won 15 duels on Saturday, equaling the most by any player in an #NWSL Championship match (Sam Mewis - 2018). Anchor.
November 23, 2025 at 4:31 PM
4 - At least one #USWNT player was directly involved in all four goals Gotham FC scored in the 2025 #NWSL Playoffs. Flag-bearers.
November 23, 2025 at 3:17 PM
2022 - Malik Tillman is the first #USMNT player to record an goal and an assist in a Bundesliga match since Jordan Pefok in August 2022. Reminder.

2 - The #USMNT has won two straight matches against CONMEBOL teams for the first time since March-May 2018 and the first time within a single window since June 2016. Warming.

5 - The #USMNT has scored five goals against a team from ouside Concacaf for the fifth time in team history, the first since a 5-1 win over Scotland in May 2012 and the first against a CONMEBOL opponent. Rout.
November 19, 2025 at 1:36 AM
4 - The #USMNT has scored four goals in the first half of a match for the 11th time since 1970 and the second against a team from outside Concacaf (Ghana in 2023). Encore.

2 - The #USMNT has scored three first-half goals against a CONMEBOL opponent for the second time (June 4, 1989 vs. Peru). Rampant.
2 - The #USMNT has scored two goals in the opening 20 minutes against a CONMEBOL opponent for the first time since June 8, 1995 vs. Chile (Eric Wynalda brace). Quickfire.

14.1 - With an average of 14.1 caps entering the match, this is the least experienced starting XI the #USMNT has named in an official FIFA international window within a year of appearing in a World Cup since October 2005 vs. Panama (7.6). Opportunities.

44 - The 2025 #NWSLChampionship between Washington Spirit and Gotham FC will be the 44th meeting between the teams in all competitions, surpassing Seattle vs. Portland as the most played fixture between two #NWSL teams. Ultimate.

2 - Jaedyn Shaw's goal for Gotham FC was the second direct free-kick winner in second-half stoppage time in #NWSL history, regular season or playoffs (Alanna Kennedy in September 2017). History.
November 16, 2025 at 10:31 PM
4 - Folarin Balogun has recorded a goal contribution in four straight starts for the second time in his career, the fifth #USMNT player to have multiple streaks of four or more starts with a goal contribution in the last 30 years (Altidore, Dempsey, Donovan, Mathis). Bunches.
November 15, 2025 at 11:45 PM
4 - The #USMNT has scored four goals in the opening four minutes of matches in 2025, equaling the most in a calendar year in team history (2019). Ready.

51 - Giovanni Reyna is the 51st different player to start a match for the #USMNT in 2025, the second most ever in a calendar year (54 in 2023). Variety.
November 15, 2025 at 9:17 PM
6 - @washingtonspirit.com's winning goal was the sixth time Rosemonde Kouassi has assisted Gift Monday in all comps in 2025. The only assister-to-scorer combo to record more goals for an #NWSL team in a single calendar year was Yuki Nagasato to Sam Kerr (7 in 2018, 8 in 2019). Inevitable.
November 15, 2025 at 7:24 PM
3 - Chelsea's Alyssa Thompson, Catarina Macario and Naomi Girma are the first trio of #USWNT players to start for a team in the #UWCL since Sam Mewis, Rose Lavelle and Abby Dahlkemper for Manchester City in March 2021. Trios.
November 11, 2025 at 7:58 PM
2 - Olivia Moultrie has assisted a Reilyn Turner goal for @thornsfc.com in each of the last two #NWSLPlayoffs, one of four assister-to-scorer combinations to record multiple goals in postseason history (Holiday -> Rodriguez 3, O'Reilly -> Rodriguez, Watt -> McCutcheon). Connection.
November 10, 2025 at 5:12 PM
2 - GothamFC's Katie Stengel is one of three players (Lynn Biyendolo, Crystal Dunn) to score multiple extra-time goals in her career in the #NWSLPlayoffs and the only one to score multiple extra-time winners. Decider.

37.5% - In penalty shootouts in all competitions for #NWSL teams, Aubrey Kingsbury has saved 37.5% of the on-target penalties she has faced (9/24). All other goalkeepers have combined to save just 17.2% (20/116). Different.
November 8, 2025 at 8:36 PM
3 - Haley McCutcheon (5 regular season goals, 3 playoff goals) is one of 12 players in #NWSL history to score at least three playoff goals and the only one to have fewer than 13 career regular-season goals. Primetime.
November 8, 2025 at 2:36 PM
3 - Ricardo Pepi has scored three result-changing goals in second-half stoppage time in the UEFA Champions League, tying Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Agüero for the most in the history of the competition. Clutch.

15/20 - Folarin Balogun is the 15th different #USMNT player to score a goal in the UEFA Champions League and the 20th to record a goal contribution. Elite.
November 4, 2025 at 8:59 PM
7 - @thornsfc.com's win Sunday earned them a home quarterfinal match, which will be the seventh home playoff match for the club (excluding predetermined Championship locations), more than any other team in #NWSL history. Daunting.
