    One Goal. One Toenail. Three Points for Sac Republic.

    In this episode of State of the Republic, we celebrate Sacramento Republic FC's important 1–0 home victory over Lexington SC in a crucial matchup against a team close to Republic in the standings.

We also preview Sacramento's upcoming home matchup against Phoenix Rising FC, with Republic looking to build on the momentum from the Lexington victory.
