IT’S FC CINCINNATI MATCH DAY SIXTEEN! The Cincinnati Bearcats had their home opener last night, thumping Alabama State 63-7. And that meant the soccer match would be of the rare Sunday variety. Here’s a really cool time-lapse of the Nippert Stadium conversion process from football to soccer. Today, our first place FC Cincinnati was taking on last-place Toronto FC 2. You’d think this would be an easy three points. But when FC|C played away at Toronto, Cincy squandered a 3-1 lead to walk away with only a point from a 3-3 draw. We were hoping they learned their lesson and could take care of business this time at home…

FC Cincinnati came out wearing Cincy Shirt’s Cincy Strong t-shirts after the tragedy that took place in our great city on September 6, 2018.

FC Cincinnati honored the brave first responders on the field before the match…

Here we go…

GOAL!! FC CINCINNATI!! And Adi tied the match back up at 2-2 after another gorgeous ball from Manu. Here’s the best view ever of this gem…

And that meant it was time for…

SPRINKLES!

And we’re back underway…

GOAL!!! FC CINCINNATI! Corben Bone was played through by Jimmy…

GOAL!!!! FC CINCINNATI! Corden Bone added a second in the 88th minute…

A crowd of 27.275 turned out to cheer on FC|C on this Sunday afternoon…

The match would end 4-3 to FC Cincinnati…

With the win, FC|C extended their unbeaten streak to 18 matches. And the next home match will be the last-ever home regular season USL match for the club before they make their highly anticipated jump to MLS next season. We’ll see you there! 😀⚽️❤️
