Nashville SC reportedly defeats Orlando City SC 3-1

We’ll never get official word on the outcome of today’s closed-door friendly against Orlando City SC, but according to multiple tweets from players and the club’s official account, Nashville SC took down the Lions by a 3-1 count.

The closed-door nature of the scrimmage typically (though not always) means both teams are going to try to win it, though obviously having no public consumption of the contest gives a little plausible deniability on that front for either side.

Those three goals are Nos. 3 through 5 of the franchise’s history (albeit in friendlies, and thus unofficial), and winger/striker Alan Winn has certainly established himself as a playmaker with two of the tallies and an assist on a third – and possibly more than that, given that we don’t have full details of the scores from today’s friendly.

Nashville SC will next take on Lipscomb University Thursday afternoon at the school’s campus in Green Hills. You can buy tickets at the Lipscomb website here.
