Here’s this afternoon’s #GothamFC starting XI. Only one change from last week but it’s a big one. Esther returns to the starting lineup for the first time in over a month, replacing Sarah Schupansky. #NWSL

Here’s this afternoon’s #GothamFC starting XI. Bruninha, Reale, and Portilho all come back in after coming off the bench last week. And Sarah Schupansky returns to the starting XI for the first time since September 7. Will be interesting to see who plays at the 9, maybe Jaedyn Shaw? #NWSL

Kansas City Current starting XI. Huge news as despite being listed as questionable, Temwa Chawinga does not make the gameday lineup and will be unavailable this afternoon. #GothamFC #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. A few changes in defence with Berger back in goal and Duran and Freeman coming into the back line replacing Bruninha and Reale. This is Duran’s first start for the club in NWSL play. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. The four returning starters from Friday’s match are Hasbo, Howell, Freeman, and Carter. Looks like Schupansky will play in the frontline with Cook and Hasbo joining Howell in midfield. Notably, Bruninha is on the bench after coming off injured on Friday. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. Geyse is out with injury which brings Hasbo back into the starting lineup and maybe sees Shaw move to the frontline. We also see Reale out of the XI for the first time in a while with Freeman coming back into and Bruninha most likely sliding to LB. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. One change from last week against San Diego with Shaw starting in place of Portilho. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. Reale and Portilho are the only carryovers from Friday, expect Reale to only go 45 mins after playing 90 mins a few days ago. New acquisition Jaedyn Shaw and rookie Ryan Campbell both get their first starts while Mandy Freeman has the captain’s armband. #NWSL

Fair to say this second half so far hasn’t been the greatest. #GothamFC #GFCvSD #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. Two changes see Hasbo and Schupansky replaced by last weeks heroes Lavelle and Purce. Interested to see who lines up where because it looks like a potential change in formation from usual for Gotham. New acquisition Jaedyn Shaw is also on the bench. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. Geyse and Carter are the only two returning starters from Friday vs Orlando and Mak Whitham gets her first ever start for Gotham. #NWSL

And better late than never, here’s your #GothamFC starting XI. A few changes from last week sees Bruninha, Hasbo, and Geyse come in for Schupansky, Freeman, and Stengel. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. Exactly the same as last week against Houston with the only change being Geyse for Whitham on the bench after the Brazilian’s red card suspension. #NWSL

Here’s tonight’s #GothamFC starting XI. As expected, a lot of rotation. Sonnett and Stengel are the only carryovers from Sunday with Hogan, Hasbo, and Duran each making their first starts of the season. Notably, Lavelle does not make the game day squad after coming off with cramping on Sunday. #NWSL

The NWSL may have accidentally leaked that the October 1 Champions Cup match between Gotham and Washington will be played at Subaru Park in Chester, PA. Gotham still has the venue for that game listed as “TBA” on their website. #GothamFC #NWSL
