Hartford Athletic edged New England Mutiny 2–1 in USL W League action on Sunday, picking up all three points at home in a tight contest.

Details on the individual goal scorers and timing of the three goals were not immediately available, but Hartford found the net twice to build enough of a cushion to survive a Mutiny reply. The home side did enough across 90 minutes to claim a result that, on the scoreline alone, suggests a competitive affair decided by fine margins.

Neither team picked up a booking, and no players were sent off — a clean disciplinary sheet in a match that was settled without major controversy.

New England pulled one back to make it a nervy finish, but Hartford held firm to see out the victory. The Mutiny will feel they had opportunities to take something from the game after pulling within a goal, but ultimately fell short on the road.

The win gives Hartford Athletic valuable points in the USL W League standings and builds momentum heading deeper into the summer schedule.
