Dunn put Gotham (6-2-3) in front in the 26th minute, firing a shot just out of the reach of goalkeeper DiDi Haracic that slid into the lower left corner. Yazmeen Ryan assisted.
Angel City (3-6-2) equalized in the 51st minute on a play that started with Sydney Leroux trying to head in Clarisse Le Bihan’s cross. Leroux and her defender missed the ball, which allowed the cross to bounce once before skipping into the goal.
