This evening was FC Cincinnati’s inaugural home opener at Nippert Stadium…

We grabbed an Uber up to UC. And stopped in for some prematch drinks at 4EG’s The St. Clair. When we first got there, it was pretty empty. By the time we left, you could hardly move in the place…

We started the trek over to Nippert Stadium…

Here we go…

FC|C’s Sean Okoli scored the first home goal in FC Cincinnati history at Nippert. And it was a stunner! Such a stunner that it made #4 on Sportscenter’s Top Ten…

It took the scoreboard operator a quick minute to get the goal up on the board…

At halftime, it was 1-0 to FC Cincinnati…

To say it was a very chilly evening was an understatement…

There were four minutes of time added on…

FULL TIME! 2-1 to FC Cincinnati!

It was such an incredible atmosphere for tonight’s match in front of 14, 658. FC|C head coach John Harkes had to be thrilled with the support…

We can’t wait for next Saturday’s home match against Louisville City FC! 🙂
