Crystal Thomas scored in the 88th minute to pull the Washington Spirit into a 1-1 draw with the Chicago Red Stars at SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview on Saturday.
Savannah McCaskill took a cross from Sarah Luebbert and scored from close range against Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Bledsoe in the 73rd minute, giving the Red Stars (1-1-1) the lead.
But Thomas sprinted past goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher and scored for the Spirit (1-1-1).
It was the second and final meeting between the teams in the National Women’s Soccer League’s fall series. The Spirit previously defeated the Red Stars 2-1.
Red Stars defender Tierna Davidson entered late in the second half. It was her first fall series appearance following a right foot injury.
NWSL teams are playing a series of regional matches in local markets following the Challenge Cup tournament in a bubble in Utah this summer.
