Still no league wins for Phoenix Rising as Open Cup clash with San Jose Earthquakes on horizon

PHNX Phoenix Rising Podcast Still Waiting

It’s been grim. Really grim.

Five league games, and still no wins for Phoenix Rising in USL Championship play as Pa-Modou Kah’s squad looks for its first victory. With Juan Carvajal and Rafael Czichos out, Rising fell 2-0 away to Sacramento Republic last weekend, with Gunnar Studenhofft and Ihsan Sacko failing to make the desired impact on the match.

Next up is New Mexico United, with former Rising man Greg Hurst up top. Then, it’s San Jose Earthquakes, with Phoenix Rising meeting the Major League Soccer side in the U.S. Open Cup.
