Brooklyn, N.Y. (November 11, 2026) — Brooklyn FC Women fell 4-0 to DC Power FC on the road, bringing an end to their five-match unbeaten streak.
Brooklyn did very well to press DC in the first half, creating turnovers to win the ball back and control a majority of the possession. However, DC was clinical with their chances, and Brooklyn went into halftime down 3-0.
Their first major opportunity came in the sixth minute, as their press forced a loose pass from DC. Forward Catherine Zimmerman won the ball and cut it back to midfielder Jess Garziano in a dangerous area, but her shot was blocked.
DC scored their first goal in the 10th minute of the match, coming from a corner kick. The cross to the back post was headed back into the six yard box and was tapped in by midfielder Emma Jaskaniec with the outside of her right foot.
Their second goal came in the 18th minute as a ball found forward Loza Abera in space at the top of the 18-yard box. She shot first time and found the back of the net with a powerful shot.
Six minutes later the lead was extended to 3-0 through forward Kayla Colbert. A ball wide found her in space on the right wing before she cut in and scored from outside of the 18-yard box.
Brooklyn’s best chance came in the 61st minute, as a cross from forward Zee King found defender Jackie Richards in space at the back post, but her header struck the upright.
DC added another goal in the 69th minute, as a ball bounced around in the Brooklyn box, unable to be cleared, and forward Tyler Lussi took advantage, scoring a half-volley.
