Up until then, I figured she must be injured. Now I wonder if her late substitution was because Ratcliffe is not happy with her for some reason and wanted to send her a message. The Smith sisters who shared one of the outside defender roles are scrappy but not fleet of foot.
Stanford has conceded just seven goals so far this season, has posted seven shutouts, including four straight, and has managed a clean sheet in 39 of its last 68 contests overall … Stanford is outscoring its opposition 17-0 over the four shutout wins

Hard to think of the defense as weakness, but I get the drift.

BTW, no video of the first two goals on Twitter, but here are the second half ones.
