PHOENIX – Just when you thought Phoenix couldn’t get any hotter, it did, and it’s all thanks to the Phoenix Rising.

If you remember, last week Phoenix Rising broke the USL all-time record for consecutive wins, and this week, they kept the streak alive after a 3-2 win over LA Galaxy II.

That’s not the only streak and record on the line though, the team has now won six consecutive road games.

After a rocky beginning, the Rising battled back from a 2-0 deficit.

Solomon Asante with the quick footwork to kick off the comeback in the 58th minute.

Then this beauty of an assist happened…

And then of course, the game winning goal by Joey Calistri in the 83rd minute.

Phoenix Rising returns home this Saturday to face off against El Paso Locomotive.
