FC Cincinnati break their own USL attendance record

FC Cincinnati crowd Nippert Stadium

They did it again.


On Saturday, FC Cincinnati broke their own record for largest attendance ever at a USL match, as they welcomed over 23,000 to Nippert Stadium in a 1-0 win over the Pittsburgh Riverhounds.

The mark breaks the previous record, 20,497, FC Cincinnati set for their inaugural home match last month.


The USL expansion team, coached by former D.C. United and US national team star John Harkes, have been a hit locally so far in their short history, and have aspirations to bigger things in the future, as a recent profile on the club illustrates.
