NJ/NY Gotham FC, formerly known as Sky Blue FC, has made an impressive turnaround from being the worst team in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) last season to reaching the semifinals this year. Under the leadership of new head coach Juan Carlos Amoros, the team has undergone a complete transformation, instilling a winning mentality and implementing a highly effective high-pressing style of play. The acquisition of U.S. women's national team forward Lynn Williams and the strong performances of players like Ali Krieger and Yazmeen Ryan have also contributed to Gotham's success. They now face the Portland Thorns for a chance to reach the NWSL Championship.
