Ali Krieger Fan Club Part of a Big Sports Weekend for The Lesbians
Megan Rapinoe arrived in an “Ali Krieger Fan Club” t-shirt to her Decision Day sport to help Gotham FC participant Ali Krieger‘s final NWSL regular-season match, which was followed by a tribute to Krieger from her team and the fans. (News broke last week that Krieger and Ashlyn Harris were getting a divorce, which was not great timing for Ali!) Krieger’s 30-yard restoration prevented Kansas City from taking the lead of their sport and ensured the Gotham FC a spot within the NWSL playoffs, so she’s not achieved but.
Meanwhile, Sue Bird donned her “Ali Krieger Fan Club” t-shirt courtside on the WNBA finals match in Brooklyn.
All the cool children are Ali Krieger followers. 😎

You can count on a full rundown of the WNBA championships from Autostraddle’s WNBA reporting group after they conclude, however within the meantime, let’s simply briefly notice that Sunday’s WNBA championship sport between the Las Vegas Aces and the New York Liberty was an unimaginable match-up! It might’ve been the season’s remaining sport had the Aces pulled off a win. But the Liberty dominated, with 27 points scored by Jonquel Jones and 20 by Breanna Stewart. In extra devastating information, there are no updates on Chelsea Gray’s injury and we’re careworn, and in addition actually upset that cameras continued rolling on Grey as she tried walking down a hallway whereas wincing in ache.
Attendance on the sport within the Barclay’s Center turned up the highest gate receipt ever for a WNBA game. (In a clarifying tweet, the unique purveyor of that information famous, “gate receipts refer to the revenue earner from tickets sold. SO there *have* been a couple of larger crowds, but there have never been more dollars spent on the gate than we see in Brooklyn this afternoon.”) Aubrey Plaza and Robin Roberts had been amongst the well-known queers in attendance.
