A lucky goal and a rare moment of quality do not a spirited comeback make. PSP has player ratings and analysis on the loss in Montreal.
Le Toux set the tone, McInerney set the scoreline, Carroll played his best game in a while, and the back line came up big.
Wednesday’s 4-1 loss at the hands of the Galaxy could have gone a whole lot differently.
The Union managed to steal three points in Chicago, but outside of Zac MacMath, Jack McInerney and Sebastien Le Toux’s pinpoint delivery, there were precious few positives.

There was very little about which to smile in the Union’s 2-0 defeat against the Revs. Perhaps John Hackworth will shuffle his deck before Saturday’s showdown with Seattle.
