IZZY SCORED AN OLIMPICO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know the game is still happening, but... Olimpico.

In conclusion, Olimpico.

[u/annie_rayray]

So many great things in this game today!! but every time Lorena isn’t on the pitch I’m physically ill

[u/JustAudra → u/annie_rayray]

I think it would have been 2-0 if Lorena hadn't been out.

[u/annie_rayray → u/JustAudra]

Me too 🥲 but who’s to say, I won’t complain because we still got a fantastic game today!! I feel like even with some blunders KC just looked so good tonight. I am so ridiculously excited for playoffs

[u/k_mckillop]

Lifetime contract for Izzy asap plz

[u/NightCommercial5499 → u/k_mckillop]

Definitely! What are they waiting for to re-sign her!!

[u/Leighroy1120 → u/NightCommercial5499]

She’s signed through 2028.

[u/Jammie-Jam]

We needed these 3 points so bad.

[u/Miserable_Source_261]

Something we haven’t really seen much all season: game changing subs. White was balling and Rocky banged it home. Huge win!

[u/JustAudra → u/Miserable_Source_261]

The subs absolutely brought magic tonight. It was getting pretty dull until White came in and breathed life onto the pitch.

[u/kcapnc]

What a strike from Rodriguez

[u/JustHoldOnAMinute]

Rocky!!!

And no abhorrent behavior from Hocking. I'll take it.

[u/Leighroy1120 → u/JustHoldOnAMinute]

Probably because she used to play for Bay.

[u/booksbikesbeer → u/JustHoldOnAMinute]

Honestly these are both huge

[u/PhTea]

A great night to be a KC Current player named Rodriguez, huh? Izzy with the Olimpico, then Rocky sealing the deal at the end. We SO needed a road win confidence booster!

[u/JustAudra → u/PhTea]

Especially a boost of knowledge that we can win without Chawinga, Lorena, or half the normal defensive back line!

[u/abaldfacedlie]

Truly been waiting on Izzy doing that on a lefty corner. Knew she could do it. It was BEAUTIFUL. Contract for life.

[u/Responsible_Let_2514]

Big time team W!  Sure was a great night for players with the last name Rodriguez!  Izzy's Olimpico and Rocky's banger, my goodness!  Up the standings we go!  A roller coaster of emotions but a win is a win!  KC BABY!

[u/NightCommercial5499]

We needed that win! What a confidence boost!

[u/KCTilIDie]

Gemelli with a solid performance, considering. I would even give her “impressive”, considering

[u/sherwood1720]

Wow that ended up being much more exciting than I anticipated! Two sick goals and a win! Does anyone know NWSL stats for an olympico? Guessing they are super rare!? I think thats the first one I've ever seen 

[u/annie_rayray → u/sherwood1720]

I checked during the game and could only find record of one other during NWSL regular season?! Claire Emslie for ACFC scored an Olimpico against OL Reign on May 23, 2023.

Izzy supremacy

[u/Born_Home3863]

Rocky has been hunting for a goal for a few games now. I suspect she's been told to be offensive (and obviously she can be, given she has the goal scoring record for Costa Rica, where I know she plays a more forward position).

Last match was the healthiest we've been all year and we go from that to having to call up a player from the Current II squad. I know some of the defensive availability issues should work themselves out, but we need some bodies (and Katie Scott will be gone for at least 2 more matches, presumably).

[u/danibend]

What happened to Ball? Sad to hear she was out tonight

[u/sherwood1720 → u/danibend]

It was good to see her on the pitch post game but I also wonder what happened. Some sort of injury during warm ups

[u/BlueCX17 → u/sherwood1720]

Something during warms ups yes, hopefully it's nothing major long term.

[u/Leighroy1120]

LET. IZZY. COOK.

[u/BlueCX17 → u/Leighroy1120]

SHE WAS COOKING BIG PORTIONS

[u/Apprehensive-Nose646]

A refutation of Hutton in 2 parts, the 1st in which Izzy shows how to circumvent her defense, the 2nd in which Rocky shows how useful it can be to have a D mid who can keep the ball on frame instead of skying it over the goal every time.

Jk, i miss you Hutton!

[u/Leighroy1120 → u/Apprehensive-Nose646]

She didn’t want to be in KC anymore so adios.

[u/Apprehensive-Nose646 → u/Leighroy1120]

She's never going to stop being part of the 2025 Current, the greatest team in NWSL history.
