Watch Live: Detroit City FC vs. Phoenix Rising FC
Detroit City Football Club heads west this Saturday evening to take on Western Conference opponent Phoenix Rising FC. Kickoff from Phoenix Rising Soccer Stadium is set for 10 p.m. and will be broadcast locally on CW Detroit 50 (WKBD-TV). For Michigan residents, the match is free to stream on CBSDetroit.com.
DCFC comes into this match after a 0-0 draw against Monterey Bay FC last Saturday afternoon. Both teams came close to breaking the deadlock during the 90 minutes, but both goalkeepers were impressive and maintained a clean sheet, resulting in DCFC's second home draw of 2025.
Following his impressive three-save clean sheet performance on Saturday, goalkeeper Carlos Herrera earned USL Championship Team of the Week honors for week five. In addition to the three saves, Herrera recorded 11 recoveries and completed 75% of his passes in a scoreless draw against his former club.
As Le Rouge heads out on the road once again this weekend, it is already their fourth road match of the young six-week season. So far, Detroit has picked up six out of a possible nine points, with the 2-0 loss to Louisville City being the only time they have dropped points away from home.
Phoenix Rising comes into this match with a 1-2-2 record to start the season. Last weekend, Rising picked up their first three points of the season in a 2-1 road victory against San Antonio FC. Phoenix would take the lead off a Rémi Cabral converted penalty in the 60th minute. San Antonio leveled the match with their own converted penalty five minutes later. Jearl Margaritha would score the only non-penalty of the match in the 68th minute to give Phoenix the victory.
Even though it is early in the season, striker Rémi Cabral is again the club's leading scorer and is looking to continue that. With three goals in five matches, Cabral is already only four goals away from tying his team-high tally from last season.
These two sides have faced off twice since DCFC joined the USL Championship in 2022. Last season at Keyworth, they played to a 1-1 draw. Ben Morris scored the opening goal in the ninth minute, but Giulio Doratiotto leveled the match in the 49th minute. The only time they played in Phoenix, Rising walked away with a 5-0 victory in 2023.
Le Rouge returns to Keyworth Stadium next Wednesday evening for third-round action of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. Kickoff against USL League One side Westchester SC is set for 7 pm. League play continues at Keyworth Stadium on Saturday, April 19, as DCFC takes on Eastern Conference rival Rhode Island FC. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m. Tickets for all Detroit City matches are available at www.detcityfc.com/tickets.

Brian Windhorst Gets Honest About Chris Finch's Knicks Links
Brian Windhorst Gets Honest About Chris Finch's Knicks Links originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Minnesota Timberwolves have enjoyed a strong run under Chris Finch as their head coach. Over the past two seasons, they were one of the final four teams left in the NBA Playoffs due to their two consecutive Western Conference Finals berths. Advertisement That would look good on any coach's resume, which would likely generate some interest around the league. The New York Knicks are one of those teams that may want to poach Finch because of their recent firing of Tom Thibodeau. Credit: Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images It would be an exciting appointment for the Knicks because Finch has taken the Timberwolves to unprecedented heights. During the Kevin Garnett era in the 2000s, the Timberwolves made a lone Western Conference Finals appearance. Now, they have two in a row. They are building towards the future with a foundation of Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, and Finch as the coach. However, some people believe the Knicks could snatch Finch away from Minnesota. ESPN insider Brian Windhorst believes if that does happen, Finch's relationship with people within the Knicks organization will be integral to the move. Advertisement Related: NBA Contender Eyeing Reunion With Timberwolves' Chris Finch Finch Has Connections With People Within The Knicks Organization The architect of Finch's initial Timberwolves hiring was Gersson Rosas. He was the Timberwolves' president of basketball operations during that time, but he has since moved on to the New York Knicks. "Do keep in mind that, Chris Finch was hired in Minnesota at the middle of the season by Gersson Rosas, who is one of Leon Rose's top lieutenants," Windhorst said on The Hoop Collective. Rosas is now the senior vice president of basketball operations, who works directly with Leon Rose. Finch's relationships with Rosas and former star player Karl-Anthony Towns are the primary reasons why people see this as a good job for him to take. Advertisement Unfortunately for the Knicks fans who hope Finch will join the team, he has long-term contract with Minnesota to uphold. The Timberwolves have one of the most promising projects, headlined by superstar Anthony Edwards. Finch Would Work Better If He Stays In Minnesota After two successful Western Conference Finals runs, Finch and the Timberwolves have some work to do. They know the team is close to reaching the NBA Finals as they must work on the team making big improvements. They already have a strong foundation with Edwards, McDaniels, and the rest of the roster. The Timberwolves need that extra edge, which will come from president of basketball operations Tim Connelly doing his job at making smart roster moves. Advertisement The Timberwolves have all the potential to win the Western Conference. It will be tough due to their competition like the Oklahoma City Thunder, Denver Nuggets, and the Los Angeles Lakers. With Finch at the helm, the Timberwolves have a great tactician in charge. He also needs to improve his rotations and schemes, but that can be analyzed during the offseason. The future is bright in Minnesota, and they should not worry about the Knicks poaching their coach.
