Did you miss the Pumas friendly Saturday? PSP is here to tell you who impressed and who didn’t with post-game analysis and player ratings from the Union’s 1-0 win on Saturday.
PSP has player ratings and analysis from Saturday’s game, along with video of postgame interviews from the locker room and manager’s press conference.
Two moments of quality were enough to help the Union steal three points against a dour Colorado Rapids outfit.
The fast start was down to energy, not quality, which is why it did not last in the Union’s 3-1 loss to Sporting KC on Saturday.
There were quality performances throughout the side on Saturday afternoon, with the Union outplaying Toronto in every aspect of the match.
There were few standouts from Wednesday’s drubbing at the hands of Columbus Crew, as PSP looks at the individual winners and losers from Wednesday’s match.
No need to declare the season won or lost after the first preseason game. Instead PSP picks the best and worst individual performances from Saturday night.
Will Hackworth be able to progress forward from what has become a predictable and conservative tactical approach?
So much for 9 points from 4 matches. The performances against Houston and Kansas City have reminded all of MLS just how much work awaits the Union this offseason.
It all went wrong for the Union in Houston, but most alarming for the coaching staff and supporters was the lack of hustle and effort over the 90 minutes.
