  1. In my mind, tonight is the 6th most important game in Union history (and if they win, it immediately drops to 7th behind Sunday’s game against Orlando). I rank it below the following:
    .
    Supporters Shield win against New England
    Open Cup final against Seattle
    Open Cup final against KC
    Open Cup final against Houston
    Playoff win last year
    .
    The first 4 were all situations where if they win the game they win the trophy (Columbus earlier this year was also win a trophy with a win, but they knew they would have another chance to do it the following week…in front of their own fans).
