Aubrey Kingsbury made four saves for her fifth shutout of the season as the Washington Spirit played to a scoreless draw against Gotham FC on Saturday afternoon in Harrison, N.J.

Ann-Katrin Berger had three stops while also registering her fifth NWSL clean sheet of the season for Gotham FC (5-5-5, 20 points), who stretched their unbeaten streak to four matches (2-0-2).

Gotham played shorthanded for the final 60-plus minutes after Geyse was given a red card in the 30th minute for violent conduct. Geyse was carded for knocking Washington’s Gabrielle Carle to the ground.

The Spirit (8-4-3, 27 points) had an opportunity in the 89th minute after Berger leaped high to catch a ball. She was undercut by teammate Lilly Reale and dropped the ball before she fell to the ground.

The ball caromed to Washington’s Heather Stainbrook, who sent a soft, right-footed shot on net that Gotham midfielder Jaelin Howell cleared away.

In the seventh minute of second-half stoppage time, Gotham’s Gabi Portilho made a long run and took a long, left-footed shot that was knocked away by Kingsbury.
