New Mexico ties largest margin of Victory in RGCU Field at Isotopes Park History
Albuquerque, NM – “Every game I start, I want to score, I want to assist and help the team,” said Pepsi man of the match Valentin Noël. Noël accounted for a goal and an assist in New Mexico’s 4-0 Prinx Tires USL Cup win over rival Phoenix Rising. This is a reverse of fortunes for United who traveled to the Valley in April and lost 3-0.
In the first half United led the way in the attack having multiple chances but just could not find a way to put the ball into the back of the net. As the halftime whistle was about to sound Chris Gloster played a ball forward to Niall Reid-Stephen who slotted it home to make it 1-0 going into half. Coming out of the gate in the second half United tacked on three more goals in the second half to make 4-0. Ousman Jabang scored the second in the 53’ to make it 2-0. Noël got on the scoring sheet in the 70’ minute before assisting in the 85’ on a Dayonn Harris goal. This ties United’s largest statistical win at RGCU Field at Isotopes Park when the Black and Yellow beat Detroit City 4-0 at home last season as well. This is the second largest victory for United over Phoenix after the club beat them 7-0 in 2022 at the UNM Soccer Complex.
