Phoenix Rising claims huge playoff hunt away victory

It may not have been the prettiest, but they’ll take it.

Phoenix Rising may have conceded first, but an equalizer from the spot from Tomás Ángel and a close range finish from Charlie Dennis was enough to see them over top-of-the-west New Mexico United.

Even without Jearl Margaritha, Rémi Cabral and Dariusz Formella, Rising took home three points.
