    Nashville SC Team Formation

    Nashville SC’s inaugural MLS match was February 29, 2020, with the club hosting Atlanta United FC at Nissan Stadium. The game was played in front of 59,069 fans, becoming the highest attended soccer event in Tennessee history. Walker Zimmerman scored the first goal in the team’s MLS history but they ultimately lost the match 2-1. However, their inaugural season came to a halt on March 12, 2020, after only two games when the MLS suspended the season for thirty days due to the 2019-2020 Coronavirus Pandemic. On March 19, the season was suspended again, this time until May 10, 2020. Furthermore, the teams are prohibited from practicing in groups until the suspension is over.
