SAN DIEGO — Alanna Kennedy scored a late equalizer and Angel City tied the San Diego Wave 1-1 on Sunday night in their Southern California rivalry in the National Women’s Soccer League.
Just as the Wave looked to be securing a first home win over Angel City since 2022, Sveindís Jane Jónsdóttir sent in a cross and Kennedy leapt highest in the box to head home and make it 1-1 in the second minute of stoppage time. The goal was Kennedy’s first for Angel City.
San Diego had only opened the scoring in the 85th minute, when Makenzy Robbe curled in a shot across the goal from the right side of the box. It was Robbe’s first goal of the season, but her 10th career goal for the Wave.
In the first half, after being struck in the head by the ball, Angel City defender Sarah Gorden left the game with a concussion.
The fourth-place Wave (7-4-4) are now undefeated in their last four matches, although the last three have all been ties.
Angel City (4-7-4) remains 11th in the standings and is winless in its last seven games. The team is also winless since head coach Alex Straus came aboard in June.
Angel City visits Utah on Friday, Aug. 15.
