Sebastien Le Toux single-handedly won Saturday evening’s match between two disappointingly poor sides.

The Union earn 3 valuable points with an ugly 2-1 win against the Montreal Impact.
Montreal is a mess, but the Union have to figure out how to fit new pieces into a team that finally looked to be coming together. How will Jim Curtin meet this new challenge?
Carlos Valdes is back with the Union.
Once again, Philly goes into Kansas City with a plan and executes it well, earning a desperately needed point. Jim Curtin is getting buy-in just in time for the stretch run.
Comments from Jim Curtin, Brian Carroll, and Brian Brown following the Union’s 1-1 draw in Kansas City.
In a rollicking, end-to-end game that could have seen more goals but for the excellent play of both goalkeepers, especially Sporting Kansas City’s Andy Gruenebaum, the Union left KC with a point, as the teams drew, 1–1.
The Union’s win over KC in May was a preview of the tactics Jim Curtin has implemented since taking over. So can Philly repeat the feat?
