Jim Curtin, Andre Blake, and Chris Pontius on the Union’s first-ever win in Columbus.
The Union spoiled the homecoming party for Columbus Crew SC, pulling out a 2-1 win behind a brace from offseason acquisition Chris Pontius and more heroics from ascendant goalkeeper Andre Blake.
Philadelphia Union need to rebound against a talented Columbus side. Philly may not get a win, but they need to show more fight than they did last week.
Jim Curtin says Maurice Edu will be out a minimum of three months with a leg fracture. Tranquillo Barnetta’s status is “a week-to-week situation.”
The rest of the season won’t be this bad. But without some quickfire adjustments, next week could be.
