Rochester 2-1 Charleston Battery: Rhinos Secure Important Road Win With Playoffs Looming

Rochester Rhinos rookie midfielder Bakayoko Gaossou came off the bench in the second half and earned the team all three points down in Charleston.

The Rhinos drew their previous seven matches on the road heading into the game in Charleston. While the team has not lost on the road since June 11 at Toronto, Rochester hadn't won an away game since June 4 at struggling Montreal.

The Battery had only lost once in 12 games prior to kicking off against the Rhinos, an odd 3-1 loss at home to the very same FC Montreal. In that span, Charleston also drew six of its last nine games making a tie the most likely outcome on Saturday night.
