On this week's Full Time Review, host Jillian Sakovits is joined by Meg Linehan to talk about Friday night's shocking medical emergency in the NWSL. After Angel City defender Savy King collapsed in the 74th minute, why wasn't the match cancelled? How were decisions made on Friday night? What communication was made with the players? And, what can the NWSL learn from this?
Jillian then goes over the top stories Matchweek 8 of the NWSL season, including her moment of the weekend. The show closes out with Jillian and Producer Theo discussing Chelsea's undefeated season in the English Women's Super League. Is this the best Chelsea team ever?
