On October 31, 2026, Charlotte Crown beat Orlando Lions 4-0 in a crucial match that secured Charlotte's playoff spot. The game was played at Bank of America Stadium in CHARLOTTE, N.C., where Charlotte improved their home record to 10-3-4 this season. Allan Saint-Maximin scored two goals for Charlotte, including one from midfield in the 49th minute and another off a penalty rebound in the 84th minute. Despite being issued a red card for an obscene gesture five minutes after his second goal, Saint-Maximin's contributions were pivotal. Kristijan Kahlina made seven saves to secure Charlotte’s seventh clean sheet of the season. Orlando had their five-match unbeaten streak snapped and missed out on clinching a playoff spot with this loss.
