Bridge City FC VS Red Cedar FC: Match Preview

Bridge City FC returns to Pittsburgh this weekend for a historic night—the club’s inaugural home match. After opening the season with a 9–8 road win to earn 3 points, Bridge City looks to build momentum in front of its home crowd as Red Cedar FC travels in from Lansing, Michigan. Red Cedar enters the matchup 1–1 and also sitting on 3 points, making this an early-season battle for position in the standings.

Bridge City will feature three anticipated debuts as Stefan Lundberg, Anthony Rowan, and Neil Shaffer are set to step onto the field for the first time this season. Their experience and composure should add immediate depth in key areas of the floor.

Jack Shearer leads the front line after an opening performance that saw him contribute a shorthanded goal against Fort Wayne, while Nathan Dragisich continues to settle into the indoor game with his tempo, sharp distribution, and two-way intensity. Josh Dimatteo brings grit and defensive edge, and the Luchini brothers, Jamie and Josh, remain central to the team’s creativity and finishing in the final third as they combined for 5 goals in Fort Wayne three weeks ago. In goal, Grant Glorioso anchors the back line after an impressive showing in Week 1.

Fans attending the home opener can purchase Bridge City FC merchandise and alcohol throughout the match. After the final whistle, players will remain on the field for a 10-minute autograph session—a chance for supporters to meet the squad and celebrate the first home match in club history.

Bridge City FC looks to defend home turf, build on its winning start, and create a special night in front of the Pittsburgh faithful.
