Angel City FC gave up a penalty and a first-half goal by Penelope Hocking in a 2-0 loss to Bay FC in a National Women’s Soccer League match Saturday night at PayPal Park.
Angel City was without defender Savy King, who is on medical leave after undergoing surgery for a heart abnormality earlier in the week. King collapsed in the second half of Angel City’s 2-0 win over the Utah Royals last weekend.
Before kickoff, both teams wore shirts with “SK3” printed on the front in tribute to King. Angel City captain Sarah Gorden also held up King’s jersey during the team photo.
Bay FC took the lead in the 23rd minute when Hocking scored with a rising shot inside the box after a pass from Taylor Huff. Three minutes later, the referee awarded a penalty after Angel City goalkeeper Angelina Anderson came off her line and brought down Huff. Caroline Conti converted for her second goal of the season.
Bay goalkeeper Jordan Silkowitz made four saves for her third shutout of the year.
The win snapped a three-game winless streak for Bay (3-4-2). Angel City (4-3-2) has lost all three of its career meetings with Bay.
