Gotham FC NWSL has struggled to generate scoring chances, with just two goals across five games, but the signing of Guro Reiten from Chelsea FC could change things. Reiten said she liked the way Gotham wanted to play football, the environment and the club, which had ambitions and looked like a challenge she really wanted to try. U.S. women's national team midfielder Rose Lavelle returns to the club off a massive performance against Japan with two goals and one assist over two matches. Defender Tierna Davidson reminded everyone why she's such a stabilizing presence on the pitch as she builds minutes for club and country. Gotham will welcome her return against Bay FC. Fans can watch Gotham FC face Bay FC on CBS, Saturday at 1 p.m. ET. The match will be played at Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, N.J. Reiten's signing is a smart move by Gotham, who are still ironing things out after a break during the international window. The team is closer to the second quarter of the season, and some clubs are on four matches or five games into the year. Gotham's success shouldn't boil down to one player, but Reiten's experience and skill could make a big difference. The NWSL is a tough league, where everyone can beat everyone, and Reiten is excited to experience that. She's heard a lot about the league and how tough it is, and she's looking forward to playing against teams like Houston and Denver, who were both unpredictable and tough to play against ahead of the break. And with Reiten on board, Gotham FC NWSL is looking to turn things around. So, can they get their first win of the season against Bay FC? The answer will come on Saturday. But for now, the focus is on Reiten and how she can help the team. Reiten's first game for Gotham will be a big test, and she's ready for it. The stage is set for an exciting match, and fans won't want to miss it.
