Veronica Latsko scored the lone goal on Sunday as OL Reign defeated the San Diego Wave in the National Women’s Soccer League playoff semifinals. The Reign will face Gotham FC, which took down the Portland Thorns in the other semifinal match, in the NWSL championship match on Saturday at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego.

Neither team has won an NWSL final, which means the league will have a new champion in its 11th season. “I thought we defended really well. This group has worked so hard this year, and to finally get back to where we believe we belong is just an unbelievable feeling,” coach Laura Harvey said after the final whistle.
The two teams played a physical, defensive battle in periodic downpours before Stengel’s goal — combining for just six shots on target while also being whistled for 38 fouls.
