Phoenix Rising FC games are known for having a loose and exciting atmosphere. From their famous one dollar beer nights to the noise emanating from the two supporters groups, Casino Arizona Field is a tough place for any opponent to come in and steal a point.
On Saturday night, you could sense the tension in the air until it gave way to jubilation in second-half stoppage time. After heading into the 90’ tied at two goals, the floodgates burst open as Phoenix scored twice in quick succession to put the game away as they defeated Timbers 2 four to two.
