The NWSL match between Racing Louisville and the Seattle Reign was postponed Sunday after a medical emergency involving Savannah DeMelo. The swift response from the league set a new precedent for player safety after a season where incidents have created frustration around the league.


On this week's Full Time Review, Jillian Sakovits is joined by The Athletic's Tamerra Griffin to unpack what happened at Lumen Field in Seattle on Sunday, why the NWSL acted so swiftly and what it means.


Tamerra and Jill also get into the top talking points from around the NWSL weekend, from the KC Current's imperious defense to Jaedyn Shaw's emotional debut for Gotham FC.


PLUS: Producer Theo reports from Villa Park, where Sam Kerr scored her 100th goal for Chelsea on her return to soccer after 634 days away.
