Another milestone by Megan Rapinoe

In the 69th minute, OL got a penalty chance which Rapinoe converted successfully and put OL Reign on the board. Canadian star Jordyn Huitema scored the equalizer in the 90th minute to level the score. However, that penalty conversion got Megan Rapinoe to be in the history books of the NWSL.

Her team OL Reign tweeted, “Forward Megan Rapinoe converted her 13th penalty-kick goal all-time, setting a new league record. Rapinoe now has 48 goals all-time in the regular season.” With FIFA Women’s world cup approaching, it is good for the team that its prime goal scorer is getting her form back after injury.
