A hard-fought season for the Richmond Kickers came to an end Sunday night as they lost a quarterfinal playoff game against Louisville City FC. On the road against a side that scored fifty-two goals during the regular season to Richmond’s thirty-three, the Kickers had a nightmare start after going down to ten men in the fourth minute. Still, it took Louisville 100 minutes to find a goal, eventually taking down Richmond in extra time 2-0.
Andrew Dykstra did well against a barrage of Louisville chances throughout the night, but unfortunately for D.C. United fans, Miguel Aguilar suffered an injury that forced him out of the match in the 84th minute.
