HARRISON, NEW JERSEY \u2014 Just a few days after winning their much-anticipated showdown last weekend, Nashville SC made sure that it didn’t have a letdown, and completed that task successfully just in the nick of time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Maxwell Woledzi scored on a header in the second minute of second-half stoppage time, giving Nashville a dramatic 1-0 victory over the New York Red Bulls inside Sports Illustrated Stadium on Wednesday evening. The win was Nashville’s second straight and moved their league-leading point total to 46 points.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I give a lot of credit to our groupo, who continue to battle and find ways to get the result on the road in different wats,” Nashville head coach B.J. Callaghan said.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Distance was created at the top of the MLS standings last weekend, when Nashville routed Lionel Messi-led Inter Miami \u2014 the team that was second place in the Eastern Conference and in the overall standings \u2014 4-1 last weekend at home. Tonight was much more of a grind for the Coyotes, as they had to withstand 13 shot attempts from New York.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The defense held up long enough for Nashville to pull out a winner, as Woledzi got his head to a long free kick by Cristian Espinoza and powered the shot into the net for the game-winner.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“When you have Espinoza on the ball, you just have to be in the space,” Woledzi said. “Luckily, I was in the space and I got the goal.”<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
