NWSL Championship 2026: Unseen Rivalries and Game-Changing Stars Set to Shake Up the Semi-Finals
Rodman has been central to Washington’s success this season, recording a career-best 12 goals and eight assists in the regular season. The forward carried that form into the quarter-finals, scoring twice and providing an assist in the 4-1 victory over Portland. Named an NWSL MVP finalist, she will be one of the biggest threats for Utah to contain.
Utah Royals – Cloé Lacasse
Lacasse has been one of Utah’s most productive players this season, contributing eight goals and 10 assists in the regular campaign. Her ability to create chances as well as find the net will be vital if the Royals are to continue their impressive play-off run. The 33-year-old played a key role in their quarter-final victory over second seeds San Diego Wave, providing the assist for Kiana Palacios’ winning goal and Utah will be hoping she can help them produce another upset against Washington Spirit.
