Shaun Wright-Phillips, Phoenix Rising FC Thrive in Stoppage vs OKC

[MadCardDisease]

Wow! What a finish! Did anyone else catch this game?

Sure looked like a BS call there during stoppage time to give OKC a penalty kick and the equalizer with only a minute or so left. Then Shaun Wright-Phillips showed he still has it and made a beautiful kick to go ahead with only seconds left. Amazing Finish!

Any word on the players that needed MRI's. Hopefully those injuries are not too serious.

I haven't heard but both Rooney and Riggi are key offensive players who PRFC can't afford to lose. Still the depth on the team showed with Johnson subbing in and scoring the go ahead goal. Plus Drogba should be ready hopefully in a couple of weeks.

Alessandro Riggi will miss 3-5 weeks with a right knee injury. At least he isn't gone for the season.

Still losing Rooney for the season is a major blow.

Dodged a bullet with Riggi.
Thanks for the info.
