Kansas City Current Sets NWSL Record With 23-Game Home Streak

The Kansas City Current isn't just winning at home anymore—they're rewriting the record books with every game they play.

On Saturday, the team defeated Boston Legacy FC 1-0 at CPKC Stadium, extending their home unbeaten streak to 23 consecutive matches. That's now the longest run in National Women's Soccer League history, surpassing the previous record.

The victory came thanks to forward Temwa Chawinga, who buried a second-chance goal in the 69th minute after Boston's goalkeeper initially saved her teammate's shot. The loose ball fell perfectly for Chawinga, who didn't miss her second opportunity.

The goal marked Chawinga's seventh of the season, all coming in her last five matches. She's now second in the league's Golden Boot race and has scored 27 regular season goals at CPKC Stadium, the second-highest total by any NWSL player at any venue in league history.

Kansas City's defense made sure that single goal was enough, shutting down Boston completely in the second half. The visitors didn't record a single shot in the final 34 minutes of the match.

The Current's home fortress has become nearly impenetrable since September 2024. During this 23-game streak, they've posted a 20-0-3 record, outscored opponents 52-11, and recorded 13 shutouts.

Head coach Chris Armas credits the team's passionate supporters. "Everything we do is for our fans that show up," he said after the match, emphasizing how the home crowd fuels their success.

Why This Inspires

What makes Kansas City's achievement special goes beyond just numbers on a scoreboard. The Current plays at CPKC Stadium, the first stadium built specifically for a women's professional sports team in the world, which opened in 2024.

The team has transformed that groundbreaking venue into an actual fortress where visiting teams simply can't win. With 11,500 fans cheering them on Saturday, Kansas City is proving that when you invest in women's sports, magic happens.

The Current also owns the league record for consecutive home wins at 10 games. They're the only NWSL team this season without a home loss or draw, sitting pretty at 6-0-0.

Kansas City now heads into a break for international play before resuming competition in late June. If they maintain this momentum, more records could fall.
