Leave it to the Chicago Red Stars to set a Women's Professional Soccer record for offensive production.

The Red Stars became the first team in WPS history to come from behind to win a game, scoring a pair of second-half goals Wednesday night to beat Washington, 2-1, in front of 4,127 at Toyota Park. In the process Chicago ended its WPS-record scoreless streak at 451 consecutive minutes, snapped a nine-match winless streak and kept itself in the heart of the league playoff race.
