It was an emotional return for Trinity Rodman. Just after scoring the goal, she buried her face in her hands and started crying.

"That was the hardest thing I've had to go through, with the injury and everything," Trinity said after the game. "So being back, especially at the home stadium with the crowd behind me, scoring a goal like that, you saw I buried it, was not going to miss it. I'm just really happy to be back. I missed the team, I missed doing what I love, so just joy."

Rodman had been out of the lineup with a back injury since April 12. Moreover, this was also the first time she had scored for the Spirit since September last year.
