FC Cincinnati reached an impressive milestone on Saturday which went largely unnoticed and unreported. Danni König’s second-half equalizer was the 100th competitive goal scored by the Orange & Blue in all competitions. Kenney Walker then added another goal later in the half to bring the team’s grand total up to 101 goals (92 in USL regular season games).

Note that this total is based on USL regular season, playoff, and US Open Cup goals. It does not include preseason or friendly goals, and penalty shootout goals do not count toward the total.
