She received a long through ball and an ill-timed challenge saw her beat the Brooklyn defender outside the box before scoring on a low-driven shot at the end of her run.<\/p>\n<p>Sports Roundup<\/p>\n<p class=\"dmnc_features-cta-social-article-cta-social-module__3beff secondaryRoman secondaryRoman-20 text-center text-gray-dark\">Get the latest D-FW sports news, analysis and opinion delivered straight to your inbox.

As soon as I get the ball in that pocket, in that zone behind the defense, I knew Cam was going to run,\u201d midfielder Heather Stainbrook said about the goal. \u201cIt was perfectly executed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Brooklyn equalized in the 83rd minute in bizarre fashion. Brooklyn forward Rebecca Cooke received a pass in behind the Dallas defense and rattled it off the crossbar from close range. Trinity\u2019s goalkeeper and defenders put their hands up and stopped playing, seemingly assuming the play would be ruled offside. Cooke, however, kept her composure and tapped the rebound home and scored. The goal stood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Trinity sits in third place (6-5-3, 21 points) in the standings with one game in hand on leaders Sporting JAX (8-3-4, 28 points) and second-placed Lexington SC (6-0-9, 27 points). Dallas\u2019 next match is next Saturday, Feb. 7 against Fort Lauderdale United FC. <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-with-images-list-with-images-module__P4zn3 inline-block pr-8 shrink-0 w-auto flex flex-col\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/fc-dallas\/2026\/01\/20\/dallas-trinity-fc-hires-nathan-thackeray-as-new-permanent-head-coach\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"aspect-ratio:190 \/ 127\" class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-with-images-list-with-images-module__6H-hI dmnc_images-modern-image-module__QFaG- max-w-full h-auto text-white dmnc_images-modern-image-module__9Zlll bg-gray-light object-contain\" width=\"190\" height=\"127\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/6Q2GSJ3EN5EBFDMX4MNI7RX4UM.png\" alt=\"Logo for Dallas Trinity FC women's soccer team.\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/fc-dallas\/2026\/01\/20\/dallas-trinity-fc-hires-nathan-thackeray-as-new-permanent-head-coach\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dallas Trinity FC hires Nathan Thackeray as new permanent head coach<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The club also announced the signing of three new players to bolster the squad for the second half of the season.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-with-images-list-with-images-module__P4zn3 inline-block pr-8 shrink-0 w-auto flex flex-col\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/fc-dallas\/2025\/12\/20\/chioma-ubogagu-scores-rylee-foster-saves-penalty-as-dallas-trinity-fc-draws-lexington-sc\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"aspect-ratio:190 \/ 127\" class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-with-images-list-with-images-module__6H-hI dmnc_images-modern-image-module__QFaG- max-w-full h-auto text-white dmnc_images-modern-image-module__9Zlll bg-gray-light object-contain\" width=\"190\" height=\"127\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/7XPTPSVT6ZEZVGATNPWSMFIC6E.jpg\" alt=\"Dallas Trinity FC celebrates after Chioma Ubogagu's goal in the 52nd minute of a game...\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/fc-dallas\/2025\/12\/20\/chioma-ubogagu-scores-rylee-foster-saves-penalty-as-dallas-trinity-fc-draws-lexington-sc\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chioma Ubogagu scores, Rylee Foster saves penalty as Dallas Trinity FC ties Lexington SC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The draw extends Dallas\u2019 unbeaten run to four games after a nearly two-month skid dropped them down the league table.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/topic\/dallas-trinity-fc\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Find more Dallas Trinity FC coverage from The Dallas Morning News here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dallas Trinity FC returned from its winter break with a 1-1 draw against Brooklyn FC Saturday on a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":118816,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[7214,98,100,99,52243,52242,52244,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-118815","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brief","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-cotton-bowl","tag-dallas-trinity-fc","tag-fc-dallas","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118815","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118815"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118815\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/118816"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118815"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118815"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118815"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
