Playing its first competitive match in club history, Rayo OKC came close to writing a win into its opening chapter. With a strong attack including Greek international Georgios Samaras and U.S. international Robbie Findley, the Carolina defense will need to be aware at all times. After a scoreless draw with FC Edmonton, Rayo OKC (0W-1D-0L, 1 point) remains at home where they played in front of a sellout crowd of 6,416 to open the season.
The RailHawks (1-0-0, 3) began the season shocked by a stunning Christian Ramirez goal, but quickly rebounded to score a pair of fine goals. Tiyi Shipalane, Austin da Luz, and the rest of the attack were dynamic against Minnesota and will give the Rayo OKC back line a stern test this weekend.
