What is it like to score in a 90th-minute equalizer with your first-ever shot as a professional footballer?
Well on this week's Squad Depth, Reyna Reyes tells us her story and helps answer that question.
Hosted by Theo Lloyd-Hughes, theconversation this week focuses on Reyna's journey from growing up in North Texas and making it all the way to the NWSL with the Portland Thorns.
Right now, the 22-year-old is challenging for the top spot in the league, with the playoffs set to start in a couple of weeks. How does it feel to be a rookie on the best team in the United States?
As well as talking football, Reyna opened up about playing for Mexico, the country of her family's heritage. Since the age of 14 she has represented El Tri, and holds many moments on and off the pitch close to her heart.
This one is not to be missed, for those in the Rose City, NWSL fans, and all footy fans alike.
