Nashville maintained their newfound form on Thursday when they secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over New York Red Bulls on home turf.
B.J. Callaghan’s men have now won three games on the bounce, including a 1-0 victory over Chattanooga Red Wolves in the US Open Cup on May 7, and are unbeaten in their last five outings (4W 1D) since April’s 3-0 defeat against Seattle Sounders.
