The NWSL Challenge Cup got underway Saturday, becoming the first pro team sports league in the United States to return during the coronavirus pandemic. Eight teams will battle for the crown in the month-long tournament after the Orlando Pride had to pull out of the competition due to numerous positive COVID-19 tests at the club.
The opening match and final will air on CBS, and all matches can be viewed on CBS All-Access.
