Story summary

In a National Women’s Soccer League match on Saturday, Brecken Mozingo scored in stoppage time to help the Utah Royals secure a 1-1 draw against Racing Louisville. The game was notable for the return of Savannah DeMelo, who had collapsed during a previous season due to undiagnosed cardiac arrhythmia and hadn’t played since September 2025. Katie O’Kane gave Louisville an early lead with a penalty kick in the 42nd minute after Madison Hammond fouled Arin Wright, but Mozingo’s late equalizer ensured Utah left with a point.

Meanwhile, other NWSL results saw the Kansas City Current defeat Bay FC 5-1 and the Boston Legacy beat the Portland Thorns 4-2.
