Maiara Niehues scored for the fourth straight match and Ary Borges added a goal as Angel City (6-1-6) downed the league-leading Wave at San Diego’s Snapdragon Stadium.
After goalkeeper Luisa Agudelo failed to corral the ball, Niehues beat defender Perle Morroni to the ball and headed it home for the 1-0 lead in the 17th minute.
Sveindís Jónsdóttir’s long throw into the box in the 26th minute was put away by Borges to make it 2-0 in the 26th minute.
Angel City attacker Jun Endo went down with a noncontact injury in the 33rd minute and was assisted off the pitch visibly shaken.
Borges took down midfielder Kimmi Ascanio in the box, resulting in a penalty kick for the Wave (9-5-1) in the 86th minute but Lia Godfrey’s shot from the spot hit the post.
Angelina Anderson had six saves for her fourth clean sheet of the season.
San Diego’s shutout streak came to an end at 242 minutes.
