Darius Randell scored in his Minnesota United debut as the Loons beat Louisville City 1-0 on Wednesday in the round of 32 of the U.S. Open Cup.
Randell was one of nine players signed to short-term agreements from MNUFC2 earlier in the day. Goalkeeper Wessel Speel; defenders Kieran Chandler, Britton Fischer, Kisa Kiingi; midfielders Curt Calov, Babacar Niang; and forwards Luke Hille and Muba Nour were also signed.
Randell scored in the 65th minute after Sang Bin Jeong passed across the front of the goal to the far side, where Randell was able to put the ball past Louisville City’s goaltender.
Speel played all 90 minutes in goal for Minnesota, which advances to play in the next round with a game to be determined.
