Reschedule
The final game of the 2018 DRD was split over two days, with the originally scheduled game being abandoned in the 38th minute due to rain. That game saw a 0-1 lead for Cincinati which was held over for the rescheduled date. Tuesday, September 11th was chosen and Cincinnati held on to the scoreline to win the match.
