Analysis and player ratings: Union 0-0 Timbers
Analysis and player ratings from Saturday night’s scoreless draw against Portland at PPL Park.
Analysis and player ratings from Saturday night’s scoreless draw against Portland at PPL Park.
A disappointing 0-0 draw leaves the Union winless since July and sinking through the Eastern Conference standings.
Let’s hope Zac MacMath forgets the first half, Seba remembers that goalscoring feeling, and Freddy&Rog never forget how to tear apart a defense.
With Keon Daniel still unavailable, the Union will try to build on a strong second half against New England this Saturday when they face Portland.
The Union fight back from a three goal deficit after giving up four first half New England goals in a wide open and entertaining match at PPL Park on Wednesday night.
The Union blew through the Revs at Gillette Stadium in July. But this New England team has their captain back, and some new faces to help him out. Meanwhile, Philly will give Zac MacMath his full debut in front of a raucous PPL Park crowd. [Update: Brian Carroll now listed as probable]
Seba scored, MacMath and Mapp played well, Migs filled in well… and the Union still lost. Which god of soccer did we tick off, anyways?
With Faryd Mondragon expected to be out for two to four weeks, here’s a look at his statistics for the season so far.
Real Salt Lake scored off two corner kicks in the first half to down the Union 2-1. Sebastien Le Toux’s first goal in open play was not enough to lift his struggling side.
Both teams are coming off rough stretches. Real Salt Lake lost Nat Borchers to a red card in their win over Chivas USA. Can the Union take advantage and pick up some momentum heading into the final stretch of the season?
