IT’S FC CINCINNATI MATCH DAY NINE! We missed the last home match against Ottawa Fury a couple of Saturday’s ago because it was the day after my second hip surgery. And I wasn’t going much of anywhere. We just watched the match on TV. FC|C beat Ottawa 2-0 on goals by Danni König and Nazmi Albadawi. We also missed post-match FC|C fireworks. Bummer. And Emmanuel Ledesma was named USL Player of the Month for June. Tonight, FC Cincinnati was playing host to Tampa Bay Rowdies. They’ve never beaten the Rowdies.  I was still a little bit sore but I was moving pretty well so we decided to give the match a try tonight…

HERE WE GO…

At halftime, it was still knotted 0-0. And that meant it was time for… SPRINKLES!

And the second half is underway…

GOAL! FC CINCINNATI! In the 54th minute, Emmanuel Ledesma gave FC|C a 1-0 lead!

GOAL!! FC CINCINNATI! Danni König doubled FC Cincinnati’s lead to 2-0 in the 85th minute to tack on an insurance goal late on!

It wasn’t announced at the match but tonight’s attendance was 25,416. The match would end 2-0 to FC Cincinnati. And for the first time FC|C defeated Tampa Bay!

With the win, FC Cincinnati remains on top of the USL Eastern Conference! 😀⚽️❤️
