Lia Godfrey scored the lone goal as the San Diego Wave upset the Washington Spirit 1-0 on Sunday.
In other National Women's Soccer League matches, the Utah Royals crushed the Portland Thorns 5-1, and and the Boston Legacy played to 1-1 draw with the Denver Summit.
Off a turnover, second half substitute Trinity Byars drew multiple defenders to her before the ball found its way to Godfrey. She got to the ball before goalkeeper Sandy MacIver and slotted it home in the 60th minute for the Wave (10-6-2).
Wave attacker Kimmi Ascanio left due to injury in the 62nd minute, visibly shaken and limping off the field.
In her second start for the Wave, goalkeeper Sandra Paños recorded two saves in her first clean sheet.
