Two wins in a row was something Phoenix Rising hadn’t done all season until last week. Three? That was asking too much, especially away to Sacramento Republic.

In the end, two crosses from Jack Gurr proved lethal, with Rocco Rios Novo unable to keep the ball out. Despite some attack-minded subs from Diego Gomez, Rising couldn’t make up the deficit.
