The Denver Broncos drive was derailed by a really bad holding call on Pat Bryant. The hold was just the Kansas City Chiefs player falling down, but that's how it goes in today's NFL. They would punt it back to the Chiefs after gaining most of the yards back.
Denver's defense would come up big on the Chiefs' next drive with Malcolm Roach tipping a third down pass near midfield to force another punt.
Starting from their own 12 yard line, Bo Nix and the Broncos offense opened things up with a checkdown to Adam Trautman for a six yard gain and a quick toss outside to Pat Bryant was an easy first down but he took his eye off the ball just long enough to drop it. On third down and four, Nix hit Jaylen Waddle finally but was immediately hit and tackled a yard short of the first down marker.
After a short two yard run for the Chiefs, Que Robinson exploded off the edge and nearly sacked Patrick Mahomes who threw the ball into the dirt to avoid the sack. On third and eight, Mahomes was pressured again and somehow picked his way through the line and gained just enough for the first down. That would be all they would get and would be punting a few plays later.
A nice punt return by Marvin Mims Jr. finally got the Broncos starting position outside of the 20 yard line for a change. An end around by Troy Franklin picked up five, then an outstanding spin move by RJ Harvey picked up four yards. On third and one, Nix from an empty backfield was immediately pressured and had to scramble to throw it away for yet another punt.

The Denver Broncos have announced their list of six inactive players for a Monday Night Football showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1.
Broncos quarterback Sam Ehlinger, running back Tyler Badie, offensive lineman Kage Casey, tight end Dallen Bentley, defensive end Jordan Jackson and defensive lineman Tyler Onyedim are inactive tonight. With the exception of Ehlinger, those players won't suit up for the game. Ehlinger will still dress as the team's emergency third-string quarterback.
With Badie inactive, rookie running back Jonah Coleman is set to make his NFL debut as the club's RB3 behind J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey.
All of Denver's inactive players are healthy scratches. The only player on the team's injury report this week was wide receiver Marvin Mims (foot), and he has been cleared to play.

Harvey Elliott went to Valencia in search of calm, minutes and the sort of fresh start that can rescue a career from drift. Instead, as Liverpool.com reports, he has arrived in the middle of turbulence, and for a young footballer trying to rebuild belief, that can be a cruel place to begin again.
The move to Spain felt, on the surface, like a sensible answer to a difficult year. Elliott had returned from an underwhelming loan at Aston Villa, a spell that promised more than it delivered, and came back to Liverpool needing clarity. Under Andoni Iraola, opportunities in pre-season were there in glimpses, but the direction of travel soon became obvious. He was not an obvious fit and early omissions from matchday squads told their own story.
So Valencia offered possibility. A big club, a demanding crowd, a league that can reward intelligence and craft, it seemed a place where Elliott might reconnect with the qualities that once made him such an exciting young midfielder. Yet football has a habit of mocking tidy plans.
IMAGO | Anfield Index
Valencia are bottom of La Liga after five matches, with only one draw to show for them. Supporters are restless, results are poor and the mood has soured quickly. Elliott, still working his way towards full sharpness, has managed only two substitute appearances. That was already a delicate situation. It has now become even more unstable.

Liverpool have made a lot of changes to their squad this summer.
Some players such as Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones have been moved on, while others, such as Victor Munoz and Jeremy Jacquet have been brought in.
It's not just their playing staff what have changed either with a decent chunk of the Reds' backroom staff also being re-jigged.
Richard Hughes is now Al-Hilal's sporting director and Michael Edwards just decided to quit after Fenway Sports Group's multi-club model was thrown in the bin.
Even though all these changes have been made, it still feels like more needs to be done before Liverpool are ready to be seen as genuine contenders for the Premier League ******* le again.

Liverpool are reportedly set to lose a talented prospect from their academy to one of their biggest rivals.
The Reds have made a happy habit of acquiring prodigious gems from the underage setups of other clubs across the UK, with Harvey Elliott (Fulham), Rio Ngumoha (Chelsea) and Trey Nyoni (Leicester) among the standout examples in recent years.
However, the shoe is now on the other foot as a certain club from along the M62 put the final touches on the signing of an up-and-coming talent from Merseyside.
On Monday evening, Fabrizio Romano took to X to report that Manchester United have completed a deal to sign Liverpool academy midfielder Isaac Konde, with the Italian including his trademark 'here we go'.
The 16-year-old is 'all set' to join the Red Devils after 'formal steps' were completed over the past couple of days.

As a team, the Florida State Seminoles did not look as good as expected when they beat the New Mexico State Aggies in Week 0 to start the 2026 season. That was not true of the running backs, who powered the offense to a 34-17 victory with Ousmane Kromah and Samuel Singleton Jr. both having career days.
While Kromah led the team with 115 yards rushing, Singleton finished as the team's top receiver after catching four passes for 54 yards and a touchdown, to go along with 42 rushing yards and another touchdown. His performance was good enough for him to be named the ACC Receiver of the Week, which can be awarded to any player who catches a pass.
Running backs coach Kam Martin was asked about Singleton's versatility on Wednesday, and he did not hold back, comparing him to Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey, who Martin coached while with the UCF Bulls. He also admitted that he thought Singleton was in for a big night due to the work he has put in this offseason.
"He's fun to coach," he said. "Sam's a guy that's in the building all the time. Yesterday, it was a off day, he came up, 'Coach, how can I get better? What's some things I can work on?' You just knew going into that game that Sam was going to have the performance that he was going to have.
"When I saw him catch that 53-yard catch on the screen, I kinda knew he was going to do that cause he played it through practice, and he worked so hard for all these moments. Sam's time is here, Sam's time is here. He put in the work and he's going to continue to make plays."

LONDON, Sept 1 (Reuters) - For the first time on record, Iran has gone about seven weeks without shipping meaningful crude exports through the Strait of Hormuz, as a U.S. naval blockade succeeds where years of sanctions failed by cutting off one of Tehran's main sources of foreign-currency earnings.
Unlike previous sanctions campaigns, when Iranian crude continued reaching buyers despite restrictions, the current blockade has stopped fresh crude cargoes reaching China, Tehran's only major remaining oil customer, increasing pressure on government finances and foreign-currency reserves.
Since the U.S. reinstated its blockade on Iran on July 14 as part of their six-month conflict, no Iranian crude cargoes have successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz to China, according to Kpler, Vortexa and TankerTrackers.com.
As a result, Iran can only sell crude to China from floating storage in Asia, which it cannot replenish as crude accumulates aboard tankers inside the strait.

Harvey Elliott has left Liverpool on loan for a second successive season after signing for Valencia.
The England Under-21 international, who spent last year at Aston Villa, has joined the LaLiga club.
Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott, who has joined Spanish side Valencia on a season-long loan deal (PA)
Valencia will not pay a loan fee for Elliott, who was omitted from Liverpool's matchday squad for the first two games of the season as manager Andoni Iraola preferred to pick other players.
Iraola has since added another winger, in the £106m signing of Bradley Barcola, further reducing Elliott's chances of first-team football at the club he supports.

Liverpool are in the process of remodelling their frontline.
The departure of Mohamed Salah on a free transfer opened up a gap on the right side of the attack. Richard Hughes has already tied up the signings of wingers Victor Munoz and Bradley Barcola.
There are also plans afoot to sell Cody Gakpo and we can expect Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa to also take their leave.
Liverpool will also be hoping to sign another wide forward before Tuesday's deadline.
Ismaila Sarr and Yankuba Minteh are the names in the frame - with Palace valuing Sarr at around £70m and Brighton seeking in excess of that figure for their 22-year-old Gambian forward.

Newcastle United travel to North London on Saturday still searching for their first league win of the season, having twice led at home to Liverpool before a stoppage-time penalty earned the visitors a point. Matthias Jaissle's side backed that performance up with a 3-2 Carabao Cup win over West Bromwich Albion in midweek.
Newly-appointed captain Dan Burn remains out with ankle ligament damage, and Joelinton (groin) and Tino Livramento (calf) are also sidelined. William Osula is still nursing a foot injury and remains unavailable. New signing Bazoumana Toure scored against West Brom despite "feeling a bit of pain" during that match and is expected to be fit for Saturday.
Nico Gonzalez, unveiled to supporters as a £50 million signing from Manchester City before the West Brom win, could be handed his Newcastle debut, though that would likely mean either Lewis Miley or fellow new arrival Sean Steur making way.
Anthony Elanga, who opened the scoring against Liverpool, is expected to be preferred to Jacob Murphy on the right, while Harvey Barnes, who scored twice against West Brom, and Toure compete for the left-wing spot.
With Osula still unavailable, Nick Woltemade is set to retain his place in attack alongside Yoane Wissa. Amar Dedic, Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman and Lewis Hall are expected to form the back four in front of Lukas Horníček, who has taken over as Newcastle's goalkeeper for the time being.

What are the early indicators, for better or worse? These are a few.
1.) Can NC State's defense be more consistently disruptive on passing plays? State's defense was really, really bad on passing downs last season—its havoc rate stunk, it was bad on a per-play basis, from an EPA basis, from pretty much every basis. Whole thing was ugly.
Virginia doesn't have a skill position group that's scaring anybody, and as long as Beau Pribula is the starting quarterback—which I don't think will last long—then the ceiling there is pretty low. But if he has four seconds to make a decision every time he drops back, he's going to look like Joe Montana. The battle between UVA's offensive line and State's defense might be the only thing that really matters in this game.
2.) Is CJ Bailey ready to be the kind of quarterback who can carry a team to a big win? The pressure is on now. Everybody knows what kind of player Bailey is, and what he can be—and he's being paid to deliver. Is he ready to handle it? He's working with a brand new bunch of receivers, and he is going to have to improvise for State to have success offensively. There will be breakdowns and misunderstandings and he will need to fix a few things in the moment to keep the ball moving. It's Week 0 and maybe the biggest game of his career so far.
3.) How good are Harvey Dyson and Popo Aguirre? NC State is counting on both to be important; I think it's fair to say both are high-floor guys, but can they be good enough to make the defense substantially better? Aguirre has the most work ahead of him on that one, and if he ends up a clear difference-maker, that changes the expectations for the defense. The margins for success on this defense are extremely small—if either of these guys has an off day, if either gets hurt, it's extremely bad news.

Two absences from Liverpool's squad for the 2-2 draw at Newcastle drew the obvious questions. Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott were left out, and when players on the margins disappear at this stage of the window, people ****** ume a transfer is around the corner. Sometimes they are right. Sometimes it is simpler than that.
Andoni Iraola gave a clear answer on both cases before Liverpool's meeting with Nottingham Forest. On Chiesa, the issue is physical. On Elliott, it is selection. Those are different problems, and they carry very different implications.
Iraola said: "Fede is not available. In the game against Como he felt something in his back.
"With Harvey and some of the players, I can only choose 20. Harvey is trying and improving every week but I still prefer other options, about the balance on the bench.

The Las Vegas Raiders are set to play their final preseason game, facing off against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night. Kickoff is at 5p.m. PT.
This will also mark the end of training camp, as the NFL's cutdown day is right around the corner on Sunday, raising the stakes for every player on the bubble to make the 53-man roster. So, this week's rookies to watch are heavily focused on the Raiders' undrafted free agents, with one third-round pick thrown in the mix.
As the 67th pick of the draft, it's highly unlikely that Crawford is in danger of getting cut. Also, the Auburn product was a project coming out of college and wasn't expected to have a big role this year after Las Vegas signed Kwity Paye, re-signed Malcolm and had the Maxx Crosby trade fall through during free agency. However, Crawford has generated just one pressure in the first two preseason games, per Pro Football Focus, and hasn't been a factor against the run, either.
Meanwhile, S&BP's Bill Williamson listed three other edges—UDFA Cian Slone and veterans Patrick Johnson and Jahfari Harvey—as players to watch against San Francisco, and all three have outperformed Crawford this month. Again, the third-rounder's roster spot should be safe, but he's looking at getting buried on the depth chart if he doesn't step up on Thursday night.
Klint Kubiak didn't mince words when talking about the team's wide receivers after last week's game, saying "they gotta get a lot better and fast". The coaching staff is clearly looking for someone to step up and provide some depth out wide, giving Williams an opportunity to earn a roster spot with a strong outing against the 49ers. He had a 41-yard catch a couple of weeks ago, but hauled in just one grab for six yards in Houston.

While all eyes from Liverpool fans will be on prospective incomings during the final week of the summer transfer window, there could also be several players leaving Anfield over the coming days.
Kopites bade an emotional farewell to Mo Salah and Andy Robertson on the final day of last season, with Ibrahima Konate also departing on a free transfer in subsequent weeks, and Curtis Jones completed his move to Inter Milan over the past few days.
Young talents like Ifeanyi Ndukwe and Kieran Morrison have departed on loan, and a few more could be following them out the door between now and the deadline next Tuesday.
In the latest Transfer DealSheet for The Athletic, which was published this morning, James Pearce ****** sed which players could viably leave Liverpool over the coming week.
He wrote that 'the future is uncertain' for Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott after both were omitted from Andoni Iraola's matchday squad for the 2-2 draw at Newcastle on Sunday, having also stated after the game on Tyneside that 'it would be no surprise' if that duo were to depart.

Spencer Pratt took aim at Jimmy Kimmel after his wife, Molly McNearney, went viral for sharing the origins of their "bad idea" office romance.
Kimmel and McNearney appeared on Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert" podcast on Monday, where they revealed how they went from co-workers to husband and wife. Page Six picked up the quotes later in the day, penning an article ***** led, "Jimmy Kimmel's wife recalls moment she knew host 'wanted to f–k' ahead of 'bad idea' romance: 'He was my boss.'"
Pratt caught wind of the story and shared it with his over 1 million followers on X, adding alongside the repost, "Isn't this what Harvey Weinstein did?"
This is not the first time Pratt has called out Kimmel on social media, as the reality star hit back at the late night host in June after the latter poked fun at his mayoral campaign on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

Kimmel and McNearney appeared on Dax Shepard's "Armchair Expert" podcast on Monday, where they revealed how they went from co-workers to husband and wife. Page Six picked up the quotes later in the day, penning an article ***** led, "Jimmy Kimmel's wife recalls moment she knew host 'wanted to f–k' ahead of 'bad idea' romance: 'He was my boss.'"
Pratt caught wind of the story and shared it with his over 1 million followers on X, adding alongside the repost, "Isn't this what Harvey Weinstein did?"
This is not the first time Pratt has called out Kimmel on social media, as the reality star hit back at the late night host in June after the latter poked fun at his mayoral campaign on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

On Monday, Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan continued to churn the bottom of the team's roster — signing tight end Ethan Conner and inside linebacker Jaheim Thomas while waiving center Jim Bonifas and cornerback Ahmari Harvey.
The moves come after Dolphins rookie linebacker Trey Moore suffered a non-disclosed injury during Saturday's preseason contest against the New York Giants that will keep the defender on the shelf for some time.
Miami's website had this to say about Thomas:
"Thomas appeared in 10 games with the Louisville Kings of the United Football League during the 2026 UFL season, recording 64 tackles (42 solo), 0.5 sack, 1.0 tackle for loss and two passes defensed. He also appeared in two postseason games and helped the Kings capture the 2026 United Bowl **** le. Thomas finished his collegiate career at Wisconsin (2024) after spending time at Arkansas (2023) and Cincinnati (2020-22). He appeared in 52 career games with 21 starts and recorded 236 tackles (97 solo), 7.0 sacks, 15.5 tackles for loss and two passes defensed during his collegiate career."

LONDON, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Oil prices slipped more than $1 a barrel on Monday as investors took profits after recent gains and awaited details of expected new U.S. sanctions on Iran, which could further disrupt supplies from the Middle East.
Brent crude futures were down $1.01, or 1.1%, to $93.38 at 1316 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was at $85.64 a barrel, down $1.42, or 1.6%.
Both contracts posted a second consecutive weekly gain last week, rising more than 5%, as peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran stalled, constraining oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a route that once carried a fifth of global supplies.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who is set to hold a press conference at 1 p.m. EDT (1700 GMT) on Monday, has threatened to impose "the toughest sanctions in history" on Iran. President Donald Trump has also threatened to impose sanctions on Iran's trading partners.

James Pearce has said it 'would be no surprise' if two Liverpool players in particular were to leave the club before the end of the summer transfer window.
There were a couple of notable omissions from Andoni Iraola's matchday squad for his first official game in charge against Newcastle on Sunday, with no place in the starting XI or even on the bench for Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa.
The two attackers have been touted for potential exits from Anfield for some time, and speculation will inevitably be fuelled by them having no part to play in the 2-2 draw at St James' Park.
In an article for The Athletic reflecting upon yesterday's match, Pearce hinted that the Liverpool duo could viably depart the club before next Tuesday's transfer deadline after they were overlooked by Iraola for the trip to Tyneside.
He wrote: 'With Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott not even making the bench against Newcastle, it would be no surprise if they moved on in the remaining eight days of the window.'

Newcastle United host Liverpool at St James' Park on Sunday evening in Matthias Jaissle's first competitive match in charge, at the end of a summer defined by significant upheaval on Tyneside.
Jaissle arrives from Al Ahli in the Saudi Pro League to replace Eddie Howe, who left the club after the start of pre-season. He inherits a squad that has sold Bruno Guimarães, Sandro Tonali and Anthony Gordon for a combined fee in excess of £240m, alongside the earlier departure of Kieran Trippier to Wolves.
Joelinton is the most notable absentee. Jaissle confirmed the midfielder is out with a groin injury but should return within a couple of weeks. Tino Livramento remains sidelined with a calf problem that forced him to withdraw from England's World Cup squad, and Fabian Schär is also being monitored for fitness. Lewis Miley made his first appearance since breaking his leg in last weekend's 2–1 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen, but whether he is ready to start remains uncertain.
Sean Steur is expected to be handed his full debut in central midfield, though fellow new signing Aladji Bamba offers a genuine alternative in the same role. Amar Dedic, Malick Thiaw and Sven Botman continue to bed in alongside captain Lewis Hall at the back. Anthony Elanga and Harvey Barnes provide the width, with Yoane Wissa operating just behind William Osula, who leads the line. Lukas Hornicek continues in goal, having established himself as the club's first-choice option this summer.
Newcastle United possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Hornicek; Dedic, Thiaw, Botman, Hall; Ramsey, Steur; Elanga, Wissa, Barnes; Osula

If you keep score, Sean Payton wants to win.
And for the first time in eight preseason games, the Denver Broncos lost. As Payton said after the game, it clearly wasn't good enough against the Green Bay Packers on Friday night. For what it's worth, each Denver Super Bowl win had a loss in the preseason, so there's that.
If Payton and the rest of Broncos Country are looking for a "win" from Friday, it's how Bo Nix looked and played. In his first game back after breaking his ankle against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional Playoff game, the Broncos quarterback was fantastic. In particular, the throws to Jaylen Waddle and RJ Harvey were absolute dimes.
If the first game action is any indication, Denver's offense is going to be fun and hard to stop. And Nix didn't seem to miss a beat.
"Honestly, yes. It was just very smooth, very easy to get back out there and go," Nix said to the media after the game. "Honestly, the other 10 guys in the huddle made it pretty easy for me as well. Just going out there, and doing my job, and treating it like a practice rep.

The attorney for Colorado football coach Deion Sanders filed a document in court Aug. 20 that said Sanders would face an undue burden if he is required to testify at his son Shilo's looming bankruptcy trial in Denver while Sanders' team prepares for its season opener at Georgia Tech on Sept. 3.
Sanders' attorney, Harvey Steinberg, also said he hasn't accepted service of a subpoena for Sanders to testify, contrary to court documents filed Aug. 19 by the attorney for the plaintiff in the case, John Darjean.
In his motion to quash the subpoena filed Aug. 20, Steinberg appears to be going all out in his effort to prevent Deion Sanders from testifying in the trial as his son tries to discharge more than $11 million in debt. The trial is expected to last up to five days, conflicting with the travel schedule of Sanders' team, which is leaving for Atlanta on Sept. 1.
"Mr. Sanders is the head coach for the University of Colorado football organization," the motion to quash states. "The CU Buffaloes' first game of the season is set to occur on September 3, 2026 in Atlanta, Georgia. Thus, Mr. Sanders' job obligations require him to continue working with the University, staff, and players to both prepare the team for its September 3 game and to travel with the team to Georgia.
"Common sense dictates that Mr. Sanders' absence from sitting outside the courtroom to await potential testimony will cause him significant and undue personal and professional burdens, and that such a requirement will also significantly impact the CU Buffaloes' preparation for their season opener."

TikTok, 9:00 pm ET Amanda Serrano vs Lucrecia Manzur
From Temecula, California, for Serrano's WBO and WBA featherweight ***** les. This is a first time thing, with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions putting a live card on TikTok rather than a more conventional broadcaster or streamer. Supporting action includes Jahmal Harvey, Avious Griffin against former Top Rank undercard staple Jackson Marinez, plus Keno Marley and Nelvie Tiafack.
From Hackney Wick, England, for the vacant European middleweight ***** le. Liddard already holds (held?) the British and Commonwealth ***** les at middleweight, but those obviously can't be on the line against the Italian Morello. Morello is 26-1 (4 KO), with his only pro loss coming back in 2019 by wide decision. He fights outside of his native Italy for the first time as a professional.
ON THE UNDERCARD: Maybe Liddard dropped at least one of his other belts? Jimmy Sains appears to be fighting for the now-vacant Commonwealth ***** le that Liddard defended his last time out. Emmanuel ***** igieg and PA Gordon also square off for the vacant English middleweight ***** le. So, lots of vacant domestic belts at middleweight are up for grabs on this show!
From Las Vegas, Nevada, for Romero's WBA welterweight ***** le. Romero is the champion and the A-side, thanks to his big decision win over Ryan Garcia in May of 2025 on that less-than-thrilling Times Square card. Lopez enters fresh off a January loss to Shakur Stevenson, and moves up to welterweight here for the first time. No idea how to take this one… At his best, Lopez is an aggressive fighter, and Romero's best ***** et is his power, so there could be fireworks if the lads decide to really mix it up. But both have brought yawns in recent outings and they're also quite close as friends, which generally makes for a lousy fight. Fingers crossed, I suppose. It'll cost you $79.99 as a standalone PPV, if that's how you consume your big fights these days.

Andoni Iraola and his training staff were all present on the touchline which was wonderful to see knowing that the main event at Anfield was soon approaching. There were even a handful of senior players watching from the balcony and I'll note that only Milos Kerkez and Dominik Szoboszlai stayed until the end.
I'm going to start by mentioning new signing Victor Munoz, this kid has pace to burn and is almost brutally direct. There are no Rio Ngumoha step overs but raw power and determination as well some nice switches of direction to throw the shadowing defenders off balance. Munoz also showed his ability with both feet in delivering good crosses and was Liverpool's best attacking outlet.
The other starting winger was Harvey Elliott, a term that should be loosely used in describing his wide play because despite Iraola's vocal instructions for Elliott to stay out wide he ignored him and continued to drift infield seeking the ball. This caused center forward Chiesa to have to go out wide on the right and leaving us with no focal point of attack. I really feel for Elliott after the way his past two seasons have gone but he needed to shake that all off yet it seems he is either vastly shot of confidence or he is trying too hard to be involved to the point he lacks discipline and broke the structure Iraola wanted.
The only other player I really feel is worth mentioning is Trey Nyoni who played the full 70 minutes and was vocally commanding at times during the second half as well positionally disciplined with good breaking up of play and forward passing. Very impressive for a young player who seems to have decided this is going to be his season to prove his worth and has given everything.
Beyond these observations Alexis Mac Allister played around sixty minutes and Wataru Endo played the full match as a center back with none of the senior center backs involved so we should see both new signings Jeremy Jacquet and Ronald Araujo get some playing time in the real friendly later.

Last-minute mishap: Sporting Club Jacksonville men's soccer experienced another heartbreaker at the finish, when a deflected header rebounded off defender Antonio Gomez and into his own net in stoppage time to give Indy Eleven a 1-0 victory in the USL Championship on Aug. 15.
Painful finish: Sporting Jax (1-14-5) looked on course for a tie until the 92nd minute. Indy's Cam Lindley lofted a cross from the left wing, Paco Craig headed it from a tight angle and the loose ball ricocheted off Gomez and into the net past Jacksonville goalkeeper Jake McGuire.
Blake back in town: Jack Blake, who played for the Jacksonville Armada in the North American Soccer League in 2017, played all 90 minutes in midfield for Indy.
Quick free kicks: Sporting Jax was outshot 19-5 and never managed to take an official shot from inside the penalty area. … Sporting Jax midfielder Raheem Somersall left the game due to injury in the 29th minute, replaced by Harvey Neville. … Canadian defender Marcus Godinho made his first start for the club. … Sporting Jax has now gone 351 minutes without scoring, since Ahmad Al-Qaq's ninth-minute goal on July 18.
Up next: Sporting Jax next plays 8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 22 against the Birmingham Legion at Protective Stadium in Birmingham, Ala.

Liverpool have got certain questions to answer over their midfield options.
Three players - Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic are out of contract in 2027. Unless new deals are quickly wrapped up then Richard Hughes will face losing another three performers for nothing next summer.
Jones is closing in on a deal to join Inter Milan while teams in the Bundesliga and around the Premier League are thought to want Elliott.
Bajcetic is sought for a deal in his native Spain - with the Spaniard needing first-team football following his recovery from injury.
Other youngsters could also end up leaving Anfield this summer - albeit on loan.
