Angel City fails to capitalize on 12 corner kicks and misses a prime scoring chance in the 90th minute in a season-opening 1-0 loss to Bay FC.

One play that encapsulated Angel City's season-opening loss came in the 90th minute when the ball finally got past Bay FC goalkeeper Lysianne Proulx and rolled slowly toward the net, only for Caprice Dedasco to clear it out just before it crossed line, preserving a 1-0 victory for the NWSL newcomers. Missed opportunities plagued Angel City FC in front of a sold-out crowd Sunday as the team struggled against Proulx, who made eight saves to secure the win.

In stoppage time, another shot from Thompson bounced off the crossbar, sealing Angel City’s fate. The first goal in Bay FC history came in the 17th minute when forward Asisat Oshoala zipped the ball through the upper right corner of the net, just out of the reach of Angel City goalkeeper Angelina Anderson. The goalkeepers saw plenty of action in the first half, with Angel City FC taking 13 shots, including seven shots on goal. Bay City took six shots, with five on goal.
