It wasn't a pretty victory, but it was a victory, and the Reign will certainly take it. It was also a wake-up call about their ability to rapidly adjust to new things, and that's something they have to take to heart.
Despite a lethargic first half, the Reign managed to come away with a point against the team ahead of them in the standings. For Laura Harvey's side, it was one of those draws that felt like draws.
Losing 3-0 and dropping three points at home is never the desired outcome, but the flatfooted start and the injury to one of the big team leaders are bigger worries going forward.
