We asked our fans to submit messages of encouragement to our players ahead of the club’s first-ever playoff match this Friday. We displayed the messages outside the locker room ahead of tonight's match for players to read as they entered the stadium, and you can read them below, too.
Be sure to catch the match live on ESPN 2 starting at 8 p.m. CT on Friday, Nov. 20. Fans can also listen in on ESPN 94.9, 102.5 The Game or El Jefe.

Payton G.
At the beginning of the season, not a single person believed in this club, not a single person could have ever predicted us making it to the playoffs, but we sure showed them why you never sleep on Nashville. They will think the same thing now, they don't think we are qualified enough to take on these playoff teams, guess we got to prove them wrong again and show them why you don't sleep on the boys in gold!!!
Katie K.
Thank you for giving this city something to be happy about in a tough year! Keep working hard, good luck!!

Nashville SC, thank you so much for making 2020 a year to remember for the right reasons. Going to the games and seeing how much you all grind and pour your hearts out for the club is so inspiring.

They said Nashville was not a soccer town. We did not deserve an MLS team. We would not support them enough. As usual, Nashville rises. To the occasion, to the challenge, to the playoffs. Kill it boys. We've got you. No matter what, you have made this town, this club, this fan PROUD. #COYBIG #NGUOY
