Orlando (3-5-5, 14 points) did manage to extend its unbeaten streak to four games, but it was still a bitter pill to swallow after taking a 2-0 lead in the first half on goals by Celia Jimenez in the 25th minute and Julie Doyle in the 46th minute.

Kansas City pulled within 2-1 on a goal by Elyse Bennett in the 57th minute and then tied the game in the 82nd minute on a goal by Cece Kizer.

Next up for the Pride is a 7 p.m. home game next Sunday against Angel City FC at Exploria Stadium.
