PREVIEW
The players are back. Preseason is over. Starting Saturday night—and every match through next fall—the points count for real.
With a new head coach on the sidelines and a fresh wave of talent, Phoenix Rising FC kicks off its 2025 USL Championship campaign against FC Tulsa at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday at Phoenix Rising Soccer Stadium. Four months after falling in the first round of the 2024 playoffs, the club returns with the same lofty goal it sets every season: winning a USL Championship title.
“I think we’re where we need to be,” Head Coach Pa-Modou Kah said. “It’s the first game of the year. It’s always unknown territory what you’re going to face or what you’re going to get, but the preparation has been very good. The boys are ready, and we can’t wait for Saturday to get here.”
