In the thrilling USL Championship match held at MUSC Health Stadium on 08 June 2024, Charleston Battery battled against Pittsburgh Riverhounds to a 2-2 draw. No red or yellow cards stained this match, indicating a discipline-focused performance from both sides.

The Charleston Battery's offense was strong and accurate, leading to 2 goals, stemming from 7 potent shots on target out of 11 attempted, surpassing Pittsburgh's 5 out of 10 attempts. The Battery further capitalized on their two assists leading to their two goals, while the Riverhounds managed to convert one assist into a goal.

However, the Riverhounds' defense proved to be substantial at critical points with their goalkeeper making 5 essential saves compared to the Battery's 3. This offset the Charleston's elevated attack slightly, showing the Riverhounds' potential to cope under pressure.

Perhaps an understated element of the match was the set-pieces, where Charleston pulled off 5 corner kicks against Pittsburgh's 3. Given that both teams scored two goals, these corner kicks could have been decisive moments if executed more effectively.

The match was defensively balanced, indicated by 8 fouls committed by the Battery and 7 by the Riverhounds. The encounter saw Charleston Battery making all 3 substitutions allowed, and the Pittsburgh Riverhounds made 2, showing both teams' capacity to adapt throughout the match strategically.

In conclusion, Charleston Battery demonstrated a high-performing offense, while the Pittsburgh Riverhounds shone with their crucial defensive plays. Nevertheless, converting chances into goals is a crucial factor for both teams to focus on to win future matches. Despite having opportunities, both teams need to capitalize better on their set pieces, which could have turned the match differently. Both clubs showed a disciplined game with no cards and less fouling, a reminder of the high level of the USL Championship.
