Philadelphia Union, missing key players due to international duty, defeated St. Louis CITY SC 1-0 at Subaru Park in Chester, PA on March 22, 2025. Ian Glavinovich’s early header, assisted by Kai Wagner, secured the win, his first MLS goal. The Union’s strong defense ended CITY SC’s four-game clean sheet streak. Eduard Lowen’s 66th-minute red card aided Philadelphia’s control. Despite Ben Lundt’s eight saves, the Union held firm, demonstrating tactical strength and halting CITY SC’s momentum.
