Next Match – Louisville City vs Pittsburgh Riverhounds – 04/30/2022

Louisville City’s draw to the Charleston Battery capped off an exhausting stretch for the boys in purple. All factors considered, it was a successful period and now the team has a full proper week to recuperate before taking on one of the league-best. Bob Lilley’s Pittsburgh Riverhounds are only one game back and two points behind LouCity. They are a historically solid team. Louisville may have gotten the better of them in their last meeting in the 2020 playoffs however, they

Match Recap – Charleston Battery vs Louisville City – 04/23/2022

The lead-up to Louisville City’s match against Charleston was exhilarating, to say the least.

The wild stretch of matches would be a test of depth for Louisville as they faced a struggling yet well-rested Battery. Coach Danny Cruz has repeatedly expressed confidence in his whole squad. This was the match to find out who could step up, as a number of fam

Match Recap – Loudoun United vs Louisville City – 04/10/2022

Coming off a win in the US Open Cup, Louisville City was off to Virginia for an interesting matchup against Loudoun United.

Lineup The starting eleven for Coach Danny Cruz’s 4-3-3 appears to be stabilizing. We are starting to see reoccurring selections for these rosters. One poin

Next Match – Loudoun United vs Louisville City – 04/10/2022

After a draw in Birmingham and a US Open Cup win back at home, Louisville City begins a three-match stretch outside of the bluegrass beginning with a trip to see Loudoun United. Although Loudoun is technically a MLS 2 team (for DC United), they have been performing about that labeling this season. They have earned two wins, a draw, and an understandable loss to a solid Riverhounds team. Unlike LouCity, Loudoun has had early season success with a back three formation and will

Early Impressions Of Louisville City

With five regular-season USL Championship matches in the books, we now have a decent idea of what to expect from the 2022 version of Louisville City.

There is still a lot of season left to play, but here are some of the early observations on LouCity: Early Cohesiveness This past offseason was Coach Danny Cruz’s first at the helm and

Match Recap – Birmingham Legion vs Louisville City – 04/02/2022

Louisville City has started their season in great form. Three straight wins for the boys in purple followed by a draw in the most recent match against Indy. While not earning all three points at home is a bummer, the team showed determination and tactical flexibility to get back into the match for the point. City’s next test would be on the road against the Birmingham Legion at their new home field, Protective Stadium. The Legion hadn’t yet found many points. However, the beg
