Jaedyn Shaw scored a goal in her Gotham FC debut to help her new club move into a third-place tie with San Diego FC by earning a 2-0 victory at San Diego on Friday.
Esther Gonzalez scored late in the first half to give her an NWSL-leading 13 on the season, while Gotham FC goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger made two saves for the shutout.
Shaw entered the match to start the second half following her $1.25 million transfer this week from the North Carolina Courage and scored on a header from near the penalty spot in the 79th minute.
Gonzalez gave Gotham FC a 1-0 lead in the 45th minute when she collected a poor clearance by San Diego FC goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan and delivered from the edge of the penalty area. A potential second Gonzalez goal late in the second half was nullified by an offside call.
Gotham FC (8-6-6, 30 points) overcame a three-point deficit to San Diego FC (8-6-6, 30 points) with the victory to open Week 20 of the season. Each team has six games remaining in the regular season.
Sheridan made four saves for San Diego FC. Her first save of the night came late in the first half to give her 600 of her NWSL career. Sheridan became the second goalkeeper to reach the 600 plateau, along with Alyssa Naeher.
