Crown Legacy FC secured a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory over the Charleston Battery in an International Club Friendly on February 8, 2026. The match, a preseason test between the USL Championship's Battery and MLS NEXT Pro's Crown Legacy FC, delivered late drama. Charleston, playing at home, took control early and held a comfortable 2-0 lead for much of the contest. However, Crown Legacy FC, the reserve side for Charlotte FC, staged a remarkable late rally. They pulled one goal back with about fifteen minutes remaining, then scored two more in quick succession in the dying moments to snatch an unlikely win. The result is a testament to the never-say-die attitude being instilled in the young Crown Legacy squad. For the Charleston Battery, it will be a frustrating lesson in game management, highlighting the need to maintain concentration for the full ninety minutes even in a friendly setting.
