Andy Najar was named to MLS Team of the Matchday following Nashville's 3-0 win against Columbus Crew on Wednesday, while Sam Surridge and Joe Willis were named to MLS Team of the Matchday bench.

Nashville SC recorded their 10th unbeaten match at home on Wednesday night with a clean sheet from goalkeeper Joe Willis and goals from Hany Mukhtar and Golden Boot leader Sam Surridge. The squad continues to prove their dominance at GEODIS Park. Debuting the Nashville Nostalgia Kit: Nashville's adidas Archive Collection Kit last night, the Boys in Gold Blue pulled ahead of previously-tied Columbus to take all three points.

After an own-goal by Columbus Crew's Zawadzki, Nashville's All-Star trio combined to score Nashville's second goal of the night. Najar sent the ball the Surridge from deep, and Mukhtar netted it with a sharp pass from Surridge.

Najar recorded his team-leading ninth assist of the season, serving the ball to midfielder Ahmed Qasem for a clean finish from Surridge. The Honduran defender made the ranks of second player in team history to produce at least 10 assists in a regular season (also, Hany Mukhtar).

Nashville's pivotal match last night also marked goalkeeper Joe Willis' 100th career regular season win and his 75^th career regular season clean sheet.
