New Mexico home unbeaten streak runs to 9 in a row
(May 6, 2026) Albuquerque, NM – On a night when the All American Rejects made an appearance at Rio Grande Credit Union Field at Isotopes Park Greg Hurst said his scoring drought ‘It Ends Tonight’. The Scotsman bagged his first goals of the 2026 season on Wednesday Night.
After going down 1-0 early after a Rubio Rubín 12th minute goal United settled back in front of 7,758 fans. In the 14th minute Greg Hurst had a shot on goal that slipped through El Paso’s Goalkeeper legs and found the back of the net to get the scoring started. Ten minutes later Hurst bagged another goal on a ball played to him from Ousman Jabang. “I think the growth that we’ve had as a group in the last two or three weeks has been unbelievable.” Hurst said postgame.
In the second half El Paso equalized late to level things up at 2 on an 86th minute goal by Diego Abitia. Postmatch Ousman Jabang said, “Teams are always going to make adjustments… it’s on us to kind of read the game a little bit more savvy.” New Mexico United will have a quick turnaround as they are back at RGCU Field at Isotopes Park Saturday night against manager Dennis Sanchez’s former club, Las Vegas Lights. This will be United’s first ever Country Night in team history. You can get your tickets on https://seatgeek.com/new-mexico-united-tickets.
