The Pittsburgh Riverhounds fell at home this weekend to FC Cincinnati in a hard fought 1-0 loss. Columbus Crew SC loanees Marshall Hollingsworth and Ben Swanson both received starts at right and central midfield respectively. Abuchi Obinwa was again selected amongst the 18-man game-day roster but never found his way into the match.
The first half was controlled by the Riverhounds for the most part, but following a 42nd minute red card to Pittsburgh defender Gale Agbossoumonde, the momentum shifted in favor of the men from the Queen City.
