Bay FC bested the Houston Dash 1-0 in a thriller Sunday at PayPal Park. After 89 minutes deadlocked, forward Cristiana Girelli netted the winner for Bay FC off a free kick that took a rebound off the post, snapping Bay FC’s winless streak and earning the club’s sixth clean sheet on the year. Girelli’s score was the first NWSL goal for the legendary Italian striker and the latest score by Bay FC since 2024.
