Alozie received a precise pass from Nichelle Prince and made no mistake in converting it into a goal, as reported by Houston Dynamo FC.
Michelle Alozie, scored a stunning goal 22 minutes into the second half, capitalising on a clearance from María Sanchez. She found a gap between two Gotham FC defenders and chipped the ball past goalkeeper Amanda Haught, who was caught off her guard.
