PREVIEW
Phoenix Rising picked up a sixth consecutive result last weekend, with defender Carl Sainté’s scoring his first Rising goal on a last-minute header to lift Rising to a 2-2 draw against Loudoun United FC on September 20. On Saturday, Rising returns home for a second weekend in a row as it hosts Oakland Roots SC at 7:00 p.m. (PT) at Phoenix Rising Stadium. With only five regular-season matches to play, every weekend matters when it comes to positioning for the postseason.
“We have to come out on the front foot (against Oakland),” Head Coach Pa-Modou Kah said. “We have to come out hungry and get our fans behind us from the first minute. We know what we can do, but it’s not enough to only talk about it. Now it’s time to do it.”
