Angel City bookends Kristen McNabb's goal early and late, knocking off San Diego.

Before the largest crowd to see them, facing their Southern California rival, the Wave had a good chance to tie or win, only to allow Angel City a shorthanded goal that beat them, 2-1, Saturday night in Los Angeles.Uncharacteristic defensive breakdowns set up L.A.'s goals.

A capacity crowd of 22,000 at Banc of California Stadium saw the home team go ahead in the ninth minute. Ali Riley, unguarded at left wing, ran to Jun Enbo’s pass wide of the goal and sent a crossing ball that caromed off Wave keeper Carly Telford’s foot and between her legs. The sequence began when Angel City pressured Tegan McGrady into an errant pass that created a run for Sydney Leroux.

“You can’t defend like we did on the goal,” said Stoney, whose club was third in fewest goals allowed. “We switched off. And, we’d already had a warning previous to that. So, it was defensively not very good for us. You can’t defend like that and expect to get points. I never fault the players’ effort. They did everything to try and get three points. We didn’t take our chances, and we didn’t defend well enough in key moments, and that’s why we lost the game.
