SPOKANE, Wash. – The Spokane Velocity picked up its first win of the group stage of the USL Cup, earning the first win over the Las Vegas Lights in club history, 1-0.
Nil Vinyals opened the scorebook in the 7th minute, the one goal on Spokane’s three shots on target. Medgy Alexandre picked up a red card in the 52nd minute after an apparent headbutt deemed ejectable by the referee crew.
Spokane’s win lifts them to third in the six-team group, and they next return to USL League One play next Sunday at 4:00 p.m. against Sarasota Paradise.
