Nashville SC beat Sporting Kansas City 4-0 at Geodis Park on Thursday, 15 October 2026, in a Major League Soccer Regular Season matchday 29 fixture that was effectively settled well before the break.

Hany Mukhtar opened the scoring in the tenth minute, and Sam Surridge doubled the advantage just seven minutes later. A third goal, credited to A. Najar, arrived in the 29th minute to give Nashville a commanding 3-0 lead at half-time. The scoring was completed deep into stoppage time when W. Madrigal converted a penalty in the 90th minute, plus five additional minutes, to seal a 4-0 scoreline.
