The new midfield trio of Riley Jackson, Shinomi Koyama, and Erica Meg Parkinson caused chaos for Orlando with their interchangeable roles and high work rate. Lauryn Thompson started and became the youngest regular-season goal scorer in club history. Natalie Jacobs returned to the back line and was outstanding. And the Courage created their own luck all night long. We break down all five goals and what this performance tells us about where this team is heading.Standout StatsEvelyn Ijeh scored her hat trick in just her 15th regular season appearance, with only one player in the last decade reaching the milestone faster. The Courage had nine shots on target to Orlando's two. And fifteen interceptions to Orlando's six, with Natalie Jacobs accounting for five of them on her own. We dig into what the numbers say about a performance that was as dominant as the scoreline suggests.Looking Ahead: Washington SpiritWashington has 11 wins in their last 14 matches and is one point behind Gotham at the top of the table. Trevor and Aaron break down Sandy MacIver's outstanding season in goal, the Tara Rudd and Esme Morgan center back pairing, and why this match will be a very different challenge from the 5-0 performance against Orlando.
