Toronto – It’s a trap!
Yeah, that was a big win against Seattle. So what? It’s not as big a match as the next one, which has “trap game” written all over it. Here’s some perspective on both games.

A statement performance in Seattle put the Union on the verge of a playoff berth and back in first place. There is only one question left to answer.
Freddy Adu got his second and Brian Carroll his first as the Union outplayed and dispatched Seattle and took over first place in the east.
Seattle still has something to play for as they welcome the Union to CenturyLink for a possible MLS Cup final preview. Yeah we said it! UPDATE: Now with Injury Report!
Three games remaining…Here’s a quick reference to how the Union did against its remaining opponents earlier in the season with match stats, scoring summaries, highlights from our match reports, analysis and player ratings, as well as video from each match. Impress your friends.
The Union again played strong confident defense, but after Justin Mapp gave them an unlikely lead, it was only a matter of time before their bunker got busted.
Justin Mapp stole a goal for the Union as they attempted to earn a valuable road win against Chivas USA. It was not enough in the end, with Juan Pablo Angel scoring a 90th minute equalizer for the home side in what was a dour 1-1 draw.
If the Philadelphia Union are going to make a mark in the 2011 MLS playoffs they have to win in the west. Here’s a good test run.
The Union pulled into second place in the Eastern Conference with a heart-stopping win over DC United. Michael Farfan scored a brilliant second half winner as Philadelphia grabs a huge 3 points with a 3-2 win.
A good road team against a good home team. A strong offense against a great defense. A team with a tenuous grip on the playoffs and a team looking for a foothold. Guess what, Union fans: The playoffs start tonight.
