2025-04-12 | Game Summary

In a tightly contested USL League One match at American Legion Memorial Stadium, Charlotte Independence and Forward Madison FC played to a 1-1 draw. The game saw Charlotte, playing a 4-4-2 formation, have more shots on target (5) despite Forward Madison, in a 4-1-4-1, dominating possession with 54.3%. Both goals came late in the second half, with Luis Alvarez putting Charlotte ahead in the 83rd minute, only for Nazeem Bartman to equalize for Forward Madison in the 88th minute. The match was physical, with 17 fouls committed by Charlotte and 21 by Forward Madison, resulting in a total of 12 yellow cards. The AI prediction favored a Charlotte Independence win, making the draw an unexpected result. The AI model expected a balanced game, and the statistics confirm this assessment.
Charlotte Independence's form has been inconsistent, with a recent loss to Greenville Triumph preceded by wins in the U.S. Open Cup and mixed league results including a draw against Chattanooga. Their next game is at home against South Georgia Tormenta FC, a team they have drawn with frequently in recent encounters. Forward Madison FC, after a recent U.S. Open Cup loss, will face Union Omaha next, a team against whom they have had mixed results historically. In their previous matches, Charlotte has struggled to maintain consistency, while Forward Madison has shown glimpses of promise but also suffered defeats. Recent head-to-head games between Charlotte and Forward Madison have been closely contested, further emphasizing the balanced nature of the league. The result can be somewhat explained by the previous games of both teams, which show an inconsistency in winning. Also, in their last 5 games, 3 were a draw. Therefore, the draw is not a big surprise.
