Captain, My Captain: Nashville SC attacking midfielder Teal Bunbury, who scored on a penalty kick in the match’s 54th minute (his second penalty kick goal in his last two MLS matches), served as team captain Sunday for the first time as a Boy in Gold. Bunbury, who has been with NSC since 2022, is sixth all-time among active players in MLS regular season games played with 371.
