Richmond Kickers take down defending USL champs Rochester Rhinos

A dazzling free kick nabs the Kickers’ 5th league win in a row

The Richmond Kickers traveled north Wednesday night to face defending USL champions Rochester Rhinos, both teams on thirty-two points going into the match. When these teams met in April, Richmond triumphed 1-0 at City Stadium with a Yudai Imura goal. Imura would make the difference again, this time in Rochester.

Richmond sought their 5th league win in a row while Rochester looked to improve from three consecutive 1-1 draws. Miguel Aguilar and Luke Mishu joined the starting lineup, but the goalkeeping carousel continued for Richmond.
