Gameday — Spirit vs Angel City, 6:30 p.m. at Audi Field on ION

Tonight at Audi Field

The Washington Spirit host Angel City FC on Saturday, Sep. 26, kickoff 6:30 p.m. ET on ION at Audi Field (club match page).

It is a 2026 NWSL home night with a national TV window — the kind of Audi date where the table and the crowd show up together. Local preview notes list several Spirit absences (including maternity leave and SEI designations) — those change; use the club board for the official XI. Sport DMV will not invent a lineup from a preview.

What is locked: competition, venue, TV, and kickoff. What is not locked: who starts and how Angel City’s attack breaks. Finish chances early if the game opens up; late Audi nights have already proven how thin one mistake can feel when the visitors find a single finish.

Locked

• Competition: 2026 NWSL
• Home venue: Audi Field
• TV: ION
• Kickoff: 6:30 p.m. ET

Local preview notes list several Spirit absences (including maternity leave and SEI designations) — those change; use the club board for the official XI. Depth nights decide whether a home favorite controls the match or spends the evening chasing transitions. ION puts national eyes on Audi; the Spirit have to turn that stage into a clean result, not just a loud atmosphere that fades after ninety minutes of unfinished business.

The Spirit page is the hub. Prior desk: Saturday preview.

Gameday at Audi on ION is Spirit soccer at full volume — check the XI, pack the stands, and treat the result like late-season oxygen. Watch how Washington manages the absences already flagged in local previews; depth nights decide whether second place holds or wobbles heading into the final stretch.
