IT’S FC CINCINNATI MATCH DAY FOUR!
Midweek FC Cincinnati defeated Detroit City FC 4-1 in the second round of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. Tonight, FC|C was playing host to North Carolina FC. Just like Atlanta United 2 two weeks ago, NCFC are also USL new boys. NCFC were formerly the Carolina RailHawks of the NASL before making the switch to USL. It turned out to be a pretty night for soccer…
HERE WE GO!
At the half, it was 2-0 FC Cincinnati! Both goals were scored by Nazmi Albadawi, who just happened to be featured on tonight’s season tickets…
Here’s Nazmi’s second goal again in slow-motion. And speaking of slow-motion…
SPRINKLES!
PENALTY TO FC CINCINNATI! 3-0!

We’ll see you next Saturday at Nippert! 😀⚽️❤️
