Darian Jenkins scored the latest regular season goal in NWSL history, helping the Orlando Pride snatch a 2-2 draw against the Washington Spirit on Friday night after entering second half stoppage time down by two. The Spirit held a 2-0 lead as six minutes of stoppage time were signaled by the fourth official, with Trinity Rodman scoring yet another highlight reel goal in the first half, and Ashley Hatch adding her seventh goal against Orlando in her last eight appearances against the Pride. However, just as the game appeared over and done with, Orlando fought back. Rookie midfielder Mikayla Cluff played a crucial pass before arriving late to head in a cross from Jordyn Listro in the fifth minute of stoppage time, giving the Pride a lifeline.

Then, with the Spirit not able to fully clear the ball into the Orlando half, the Pride stunningly struck again. Multiple Washington blocks ended up going directly to an Orlando player, and late sub Julie Doyle played a pass to Jenkins at the back post. From there, Jenkins made some NWSL history, burying a low shot 7:53 into stoppage time to somehow give Orlando a share of the points. That stands as an NWSL record for the latest goal scored in a regular season game. Speaking to media post-game, Jenkins said the key to the comeback was “daring to take chances and trusting each other, that it was gonna work out.” Pride head coach Amanda Cromwell said “I don’t think I’ve been so happy about a tie in my life,” later adding that in the celebrations, she nearly injured USWNT legend and Orlando assistant coach Michelle Akers. “She came to hug me and she said I just bear-hugged her so hard, like I think I had super-human strength.”
