MATCH DAY PREVIEW Sunday’s match, presented by Providence Health & Services, marks the regular-season home finale for Portland Thorns FC. Facing first-place FC Kansas City in a nationally televised game on FOX Soccer, Portland has the opportunity to leapfrog their opponents into the No. 1 spot in the National Women’s Soccer League with a win. Sunday’s game marks the fourth meeting this season between Thorns FC and FC Kansas City. The season series, which is tied 1-1-1 between the sides, has seen a little bit of everything, beginning with the first-ever game in NWSL history on April 13 as Thorns FC fought back for a 1-1 draw on the road against the Blues. The two sides traded blows on June 6 at JELD-WEN Field as Portland emerged with a 4-3 win despite a brace from FC Kansas City’s Lauren Holiday. Most recently, FC Kansas City earned a 2-0 win over Thorns FC on June 30 at Verizon Wireless Field in Overland Park, Kan.

FOX Soccer Unbeaten in four straight games, Portland took the outright claim to second place on Wednesday following a 3-1 win over Sky Blue FC.

PLAYOFF PICTURE Entering the weekend, Thorns FC can clinch a spot in the NWSL playoffs with a win on Sunday or a draw combined with a Boston loss or draw against Western New York. Thorns FC can also clinch with a Chicago loss or draw against Seattle on Saturday coupled with a Boston loss or draw against Western New York.

SCORING STREAK Rookie midfielder Meleana Shim became the first Thorns FC player to record a goal in three consecutive matches this season with her goal against Chicago on July 28. Shim, who has scored four goals this year, tallied the game-tying goal against the Western New York Flash on July 14 and the game-winning goal on July 21 against Boston. Forwards Alex Morgan (May 4-12), Christine Sinclair (May 19-25) and Danielle Foxhoven (June 6-16) have scored goals in back-to-back matches this year.

LAST MATCH VS. FC KANSAS CITY Midfielder Lauren Holiday tallied a strike from distance in the 10th minute and second-half substitute Merritt Mathias added a goal in the 71st minute as FC Kansas City defeated Thorns FC 2-0 before 4,774 fans at Verizon Wireless Field at Shawnee Mission District Stadium on June 30. The match marked Portland’s first road loss of the 2013 season. The home side jumped out to an early lead when defender Leigh Ann Robinson picked out Holiday with a pass from the defensive third in the 10th minute. Holiday collected the ball near the halfway line and dribbled 25 yards down the middle of the field before unleashing a right-footed shot that deflected off a defender and caught LeBlanc out of position. Defender Merritt Mathias added a second goal for FC Kansas City in the 71st minute when a pass from Robinson was mishit into the penalty box by Thorns FC midfielder Angie Kerr. The ball looped over the Portland defense and Mathias was able to flick it into the goal past LeBlanc, who was rushing off her line to stop the threat.

HEAD COACH CINDY PARLOW CONE A U.S. Women’s National Team veteran and two-time Olympic gold medalist, Cindy Parlow Cone leads Portland Thorns FC into their inaugural National Women’s Soccer League season in 2013. She was appointed the first head coach in the club’s history on Dec. 19, 2012.

One of the all-time leading goal scorers in U.S. Women’s National Team history, Cone’s playing career included a nine-year stint with the national team, a championship in the 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup and gold medals at the 1996 and 2004 Olympic Games. She is the youngest player ever to win both an Olympic gold medal and a World Cup title. Due to post-concussion syndrome, she retired from the national team in 2004 with 75 goals and 35 assists in 158 appearances.

A native of Memphis, Tenn., Cone, 35, spent the last six years as the assistant coach for her alma mater, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from 2007-12. She helped guide the team to national championship-winning seasons in 2008, 2009 and 2012.

In addition to coaching at UNC, Cindy also served as the director of coaching for senior girls programs (U-15 to U-18) at Triangle United Soccer Association in Chapel Hill, N.C., and has been a member of the U.S. U-14 and U-15 Girls National Team coaching staffs since 2010. She holds a USSF “A” License and was the only female coach to participate in the FIFA Futuro III course.

Cone, a forward, began her international career with the U.S. Women’s National Team in 1996, scoring twice in her debut and contributing to an 8-1 win over Russia on Jan.14, 1996. She was named the U.S. Soccer Young Female Athlete of the Year in 1998 and was a starting forward on the highly recognized United States squad for the 1999 Women’s World Cup, scoring two goals in the tournament. The 1999 U.S. Women’s National Team was named Sports Illustrated’s 1999 Athlete of the Year.

Additionally, Cone helped the U.S. Women’s National Team to a third-place finish in the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup, playing in the semifinal match against Germany held at JELD-WEN Field (then PGE Park), and a silver medal in the 2000 Sydney Olympics. She, along with the other members of the 1996 Olympic team, was inducted into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame in 2004.

Cone played in Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) for three seasons with the Atlanta Beat from 2001-03, leading the team to the postseason each season.

At North Carolina, Cone recorded 68 goals and 53 assists during her collegiate career from 1995-98, and is one of 10 players in the program’s history to record 40 or more goals and assists in a career. She was a four-time All-American, won the Hermann Trophy in 1997 and 1998 as the nation’s top player, was an four-time Academic All-American, and led the Tar Heels to back-to-back national titles in 1996 and 1997.

ATTENDANCE IN CONTEXT Through 10 home games, Portland has earned an average attendance number of 12,890 at JELD-WEN Field. The number is impressive when put in larger context. When placed alongside Major League Soccer attendance numbers, Thorns FC draw larger average crowds than Chivas USA (8,715) and just slightly less than three other MLS clubs: D.C. United (13,688), New England (13,745) and Chicago (13,775). Worldwide based on 2012-13 attendance, Thorns FC have earned higher average attendance than seven men’s teams in the Dutch Eredivisie (Netherlands), five teams in Ligue 1 (France), three teams in Serie A (Italy) and England’s npower Championship (the step below the Premier League) and two teams in La Liga (Spain).

MAGIC NUMBER Thorns FC are 9-0-1 when scoring two or more goals this season. In nine of the team’s 10 wins, Portland has tallied two or more goals, including a streak of four straight wins when scoring twice in a game (April 21-May 12). When scoring the first goal, Thorns FC are an undefeated 8-0-1.

STEADY HANDS A two-time NWSL Player of the Week selection, Thorns FC goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc ranks fourth in the league with a 1.00 goals-against average. The Canada Women’s National Team standout has stopped consecutive penalty kicks and is the only goalkeeper in the NWSL that has saved more than one penalty kick this season. LeBlanc also ranks third in shutouts (6) in the NWSL.

RELIABLE DEFENSIVE CORPS Through 18 games this season, Portland’s back line of Nikki Marshall, Rachel Buehler, Kat Williamson and Marian Dougherty have proved to be a reliable group.

Marshall and Williamson have started all 18 games, with Williamson (a rookie) playing every minute of every game this season (1,620). Marshall ranks third on the team in minutes played. Buehler has missed two matches, both for international duty, while Dougherty missed two games (one due to her sister’s wedding).

THORNS FC EARN 3-1 WIN OVER SKY BLUE FC Three unanswered goals, including back-to-back tallies in an eight-minute span during the second-half, helped propel Thorns FC to a 3-1, come-from-behind win over Sky Blue FC before 13,769 fans at JELD-WEN Field on Wednesday night.

After conceding the opening goal on an own goal in the 17th minute, Thorns FC responded when forward Alex Morgan tallied the equalizer in the 36th minute.

Midfielder Mana Shim netted the go-ahead goal, her fourth goal in as many games, in the 65th minute and midfielder Allie Long added an insurance goal for Portland with a picturesque curling shot to the upper far corner.

THORNS FC SIGN TINA ELLERTSON Thorns FC signed former U.S. Women’s National Team defender Tina Ellertson on Wednesday at the NWSL roster freeze deadline. Additionally, the club placed midfielder Nikki Washington on the disabled list with a knee injury. Ellertson, 31, was the team’s first pick (eighth overall) in the NWSL Supplemental Draft on Feb. 7.
