The Union secure their first ever point in Columbus in an active match that could have finished with a much larger scoreline.
The Union were thoroughly outplayed in Saturday’s 2-1 loss at Red Bull Arena.
Two moments of quality were enough to help the Union steal three points against a dour Colorado Rapids outfit.
The performance may have been subpar, but the Union did just enough to pull off the smash and grab and steal three points in Colorado.
The fast start was down to energy, not quality, which is why it did not last in the Union’s 3-1 loss to Sporting KC on Saturday.
Despite a bright early start, the Union’s performance left a lot to be desired, as Sporting Kansas City came from behind to spoil the PPL Park home opener, 3-1.
The 2013 season is right around the corner and if the Union are to succeed, they will need a number of players to step up. PSP looks at which players are under the most pressure to heed the call.
