Philadelphia Union II edged past Huntsville City FC 5-3 in a goal-filled MLS Next Pro encounter. The home side led four times, but each time Huntsville hit back, before Philadelphia eventually pulled clear in a remarkable, late-lock that saw all seven strikes recorded at the 990th minute.
Edward Davis opened the scoring for Philadelphia, only for Nick Sullivan to level. Rafael Uzcátegui restored the lead, but Zidane Yanez made it 2-2. Tyler Gladstone then put Philadelphia 3-2 ahead, yet Moisés Véliz equalised again. George Marks scored what proved to be the decisive goal, making it 4-3.
Despite a dead-even possession split (51%–49%) and identical total shots (9 each), Philadelphia were more clinical, putting three of their efforts on target to Huntsville's two. The visitors created three big chances to Philadelphia's two, but missed all three, while Philadelphia converted theirs. The game also saw yellow cards for Isaiah Mendoza, Giovanny Sequera, and Malachi Molina.
