Last week Utah Royals FC tied the first-place N.C. Courage at Rio Tinto Stadium, making Utah the only team in the league to take points from Carolina in every match this year. GK Nicole Barnhart came up big between the pipes, recording three saves on the night. Was their stellar defensive performance enough to move URFC up the power rankings?

“Utah picked up one point in Week 17, earning a 0-0 draw against the Courage, but are still seven points back from a playoff spot. Utah is the only team to not lose to the Courage this season, but still trail them by a big margin with an 5-6-7 record with 22 points. Utah Royals FC will return to action on August 5 when they face the Houston Dash on the road.”
URFC will hit the road for their upcoming match against the Houston Dash on August 5th. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. MT, and will be broadcasted live on KMYU, the KSL TV app, and ESPN700 AM.
