Lexington SC secured a 1-0 victory away at Sporting JAX in USL Super League action on Sunday, with McKenzie Weinert's second-half strike proving the difference.
The first half offered little to separate the two sides. Neither team managed to find a breakthrough before the break, and the game headed into halftime locked at 0-0.
The deadlock was broken in the 59th minute. Addie McCain picked out Weinert, who made no mistake with the finish to put Lexington SC ahead. It was a clinical moment in an otherwise tight contest.
Sporting JAX pushed for an equalizer in the final 30 minutes but could not find a way through. Lexington's defensive shape held firm, and the hosts ran out of ideas as the clock wound down. The match passed without a single booking — a clean, disciplined affair from both teams.
The result gives Lexington SC a valuable three points on the road and adds to Sporting JAX's frustrations at home in what is shaping up to be a competitive USL Super League season.
