The Pittsburgh Riverhounds secured a 2-0 victory against Charleston Battery, the club’s fifth straight in league competition which also elevated them to the top of the Eastern Conference standings on Saturday night at Highmark Stadium.

FINAL: Riverhounds SC 2, Charleston Battery 0

Pittsburgh Soccer Now’s Ed Thompson was there — and took some spectacular images from the festivities and action as another big crowd was on hand at Highmark Stadium.

What a night. Electric and amazing are 2 words to describe it. @RiverhoundsSC were exceptional. The fans; unbelievable. The @SteelArmy? What can you say. They brought their best and were a factor in the game. Bravo Pittsburgh. This might just be a soccer town yet @pghsoccernow pic.twitter.com/Rax7ECfHge
