GEODIS Park, the largest soccer specific stadium in the United States and Canada, made its grand debut on Sunday afternoon in front of a sellout crowd of 30,109 in Nashville, Tenn. The Boys in Gold rallied to earn a 1-1 draw after Randall Leal converted a penalty kick in the 85th minute of play.

The Streak Rolls On: Nashville SC’s result on Sunday extended the club’s home unbeaten streak to 20 consecutive matches. The Boys in Gold are coming off a 2021 season where they became the seventh team in MLS history to go undefeated at home for a full season. Nashville’s last home defeat on Nov. 4, 2020 happened 544 days ago.

First Home Goal Memories: The honor of first Nashville SC goal in GEODIS Park belongs to Costa Rican international Randall Leal, who converted a penalty in the 85th minute. This was the first penalty successfully converted by Nashville SC and the first goal of the season for Leal.

The Boys Are Home: After spending the first eight MLS matches on the road, the Boys in Gold will be in the Music City for five of its next six matches including a Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Round of 32 Match against Atlanta United FC on May 11 at GEODIS Park.
