Memphis 901 FC News Release
Albuquerque, NM. - Memphis 901 FC fell 4-1 to New Mexico United in the 2023 regular season finale on Saturday night at Isotopes Park.
The Beale Street Boys went down two goals early in the match and couldn't rally for a comeback to take points on the road.
Memphis came out with strong pressure in the second half and found instant chances resulting in their only goal of the night in the 51st minute. Aaron Molloy found Carson Vom Steeg free in the box on his corner kick, giving the defender a perfect serve for a header and his first goal of the season. Molloy tallied his team-leading eighth assist of the season on the set piece.
New Mexico would answer quickly, however, notching another goal 10 minutes later and again in the 71st minute to put the match away
Memphis 901 FC finishes the season with a 14-10-10 record looking forward to the club's third consecutive postseason appearance in the USL Championship.
901 FC will need some help to maintain their top-four positioning and host in the first round of the USL Championship Playoffs. A Tampa Bay victory or draw to Louisville City FC on Saturday guarantees a home match for 901 FC on Saturday, October 21 at AutoZone Park as a No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference.
