Surridge re-directed a shot by Patrick Yazbek into the net to open the scoring in the 26th minute and his rising shot from the right corner of the 6-yard box in the 47th made it 3-1.

Hany Mukhtar’s shot from just outside the penalty area was parried by diving goalkeeper Drake Callender, but Espinoza was there for the tap-in putback to give Nashville (2-0-1) a 2-0 lead in the 33rd.

Nectarios Triantis scored for Minnesota (1-1-1) in the 35th minute.

Callender finished with three saves.

Nashville’s Brian Schwake stopped two shots.
