FC Tulsa came from behind to beat Las Vegas Lights FC 3–2 at home on Saturday, with Owen Damm involved in two of the three goals to seal a hard-fought USL Championship victory. Kalil ElMedkhar, Rémi Cabral, and Damm found the net for Tulsa, while Johnny Rodriguez and Abraham Okyere scored for the visitors.

Las Vegas struck first. Rodriguez opened the scoring in the 32nd minute, finishing off a Marc Ybarra assist to give the Lights the lead. Tulsa needed less than ten minutes to respond. ElMedkhar equalized in the 41st minute, sending the sides into halftime level at 1–1.

The second half belonged largely to Tulsa, though Las Vegas made them sweat. Cabral put the hosts ahead in the 61st minute, converting from an Owen Damm delivery. Cabral picked up a yellow card just a minute later. The lead lasted all of five minutes — Rodriguez turned provider in the 66th minute, setting up Okyere to pull Las Vegas level at 2–2. Jeorgio Kocevski was booked for Tulsa in the same passage of play.

Tulsa found the winner through Damm in the 82nd minute, who got on the end of a Delentz Pierre assist to make it 3–2. Rodriguez picked up a yellow card two minutes earlier as frustration crept into the Vegas performance, and Manuel Arteaga was booked deep in stoppage time as the Lights chased an equalizer that never came.

The win gives FC Tulsa an early-season boost as both sides look to establish themselves in the 2026 USL Championship standings.
