That’s seven opening day wins in row for @loucity.com and a perfect 4-0-0 over Lexington in Bluegrassico. #LEXvLOU

Aiden McFadden puts @loucity.com ahead with five minutes to go in Lexington. #USL-C #LEXvLOU

Another debut goal, this time by @loucity.com's Mukwelle Akale to level things up in Lexington.

The shiftiness, the finish, tremendous, sets up the second half. #USL-C #LEXvLOU

Aaron Malloy with the first goal in #USLChampionship for 2026 #LEXvLOU

First goal of the 2026 #USL-C season is by Lexington SC's Aaron Molloy.

The four-time All-League First Team selection rips home a finish from 25 yards to put the hosts ahead in front of a sellout crowd. #LEXvLOU

Loved that first minute in #LEXvLOU. So many casual fans who don’t have social media might not be aware of what’s going on with the CBA negotiations, but they’ll now be wondering what that was about and learn all about it.

The USL Players Association's statement about demonstrating on the opening weekend of the 2026 USL Championship season amid an ongoing dispute with the league over a new collective bargaining agreement

The referee blows for the start of #LEXvLOU and the players, acknowledging the ongoing labor dispute, #StandUpForStandards, standing in place and not actually kicking off for almost a minute.

@loucity.com hasn’t lost the opening match of a season since 2019. They’ve won all six season opening matches since then. Louisville are also a perfect 3-0-0 against Lexington all time. Can Lexington reverse all of that tonight?

Lex v Lou will face each other for the 1st of 3 times on Saturday in the preseason match in Lou

There’s been some discussion about the name of this rivalry for some time, so I’m curious what people think, I’m partial to Bluegrassico but I wonder what others think
