The Current finished the regular season in fifth place with 36 points and a 10-6-6 record after only managing three wins in the club’s 2021 debut season. The team’s improvement was fueled by a 13-game unbeaten streak, the second-longest in NWSL history, in which the Current won or tied every game from May 30 through Sept. 11.  

Six teams qualified for the NWSL Playoffs. OL Reign and the Portland Thorns each earned a first-round bye as the first and second seeds. They will host the NWSL Semifinals Oct. 23.
