Awful Phoenix Rising display sees Lexington SC do the double

It was one of Phoenix Rising’s worst performances for quite some time.

Away against Lexington SC, Pa-Modou Kah’s side came up empty in a 2-0 loss.

That means that Lexington, a side outside of the playoff places, has done the double over Rising in their inaugural USL Championship season.

However, the match also marked the return of Rémi Cabral into the Rising squad after injury, while Daniel Flores made his club debut and Kelvin Arase continues to wait for his chance to officially join the squad.

Next up, it’s Tampa Bay Rowdies. But can Rising get a result? Tampa Bay may be struggling this year, but they still boast players like Manuel Arteaga who could make a difference.
