Sam Bassett scored late in regulation to send the Pittsburgh Riverhounds to a 1-0 road win over expansion Brooklyn FC on Saturday night.<\/p>\n
Nico Campuzano made five saves to earn the shutout for the Riverhounds (10-8-3), who are unbeaten in their last four games (3-0-1) and have moved into a tie for third place with Charleston in the USL Championship Eastern Conference standings.<\/p>\n
Brooklyn (3-12-4) nearly got a result against the Riverhounds for the second straight meeting between the clubs. Brooklyn won 2-0 on July 4.<\/p>\n
But Bassett took advantage of a free kick just outside the penalty area in the 83rd minute, sending a shot over the wall and inside the left post.<\/p>\n
Campuzano made it stand up for his third shutout in August.<\/p>\n
The Riverhounds will stay on the road to visit El Paso Locomotive FC at 9 p.m. Wednesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sam Bassett scored late in regulation to send the Pittsburgh Riverhounds to a 1-0 road win over expansion…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":327649,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-327648","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/327648","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=327648"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/327648\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/327649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=327648"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=327648"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=327648"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
