One Knoxville SC and Portland Hearts of Pine shared the points in a 1-1 draw at home. Portland took the lead in the second half, and despite One Knoxville's territorial dominance, the home side needed an 86th-minute equaliser.
Diego Gonzalez put Portland ahead in the 57th minute. One Knoxville pressed for an equaliser, and Babacar Diene eventually delivered it in the 86th minute. Diene was booked shortly after his goal, while Diego Gonzalez and Finn McRobb also picked up yellow cards.
The numbers underline One Knoxville's control: 69% possession, 21 total shots and eight on target, compared with Portland's eight shots and two on target. Yet Portland's goalkeeper made six saves and One Knoxville missed two big chances, so the draw reflects a game where the visitors were clinical and the home side were far more dominant.
