Brooklyn, New York - Brooklyn Football Club (Brooklyn FC) men fell 0-1 to Louisville City FC at home.

The match remained scoreless through the first half, with Brooklyn creating early danger on set pieces. Vuk Latinovich saw a header from close range drift just wide, while Thomas Vancaeyezeele followed with a point-blank header that narrowly missed the target.

Goalkeeper Jackson Lee also played a key role in keeping the match level, making multiple saves to deny Louisville's early opportunities.

Louisville found the decisive moment in the 60th minute when a deflected ball resulted in an own goal credited to Vancaeyezeele.

Brooklyn responded with sustained attacking pressure and several clear chances. Markus Anderson forced a save with a driven effort from distance, while Stefan Stojanovic was denied from close range inside the box.

Later, Taimu Okiyoshi tested the goalkeeper with a strike from outside the area, but Louisville goalkeeper Hugo Fauroux remained composed to preserve the lead.

Despite Brooklyn's push and multiple individual chances, the hosts were unable to find the equalizer as Louisville held on for the 0-1 result.
