Player Ratings and Analysis: Union 1-1 Toronto FC
After a stunner from Le Toux, the Union parked the bus a bit too early. Toronto never quite made it off of theirs and the Union were unable to find a second goal.

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.
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.
An acceptable tie with many strong performances. Michael Farfan and Roger Torres led the way for a Union side that definitely has its swagger back.
Strong defense + Roger “Mighty Mouse” Torres + Le Toux can score again = VICTORY!!!!!!
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.
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?
Le Toux nets two and Freddy Adu gets his feet wet in the Union’s 2-2 draw with Dallas. We’ve got player ratings and analysis.
Another frustrating tie means it’s time to start asking how this team should be handled during the latter stages of the season.
Soccer being a team sport, player ratings have the inherent flaw of isolating an individual out of eleven interconnected pieces. In this case, it was eleven pieces who struggled to find consistency in connecting well.
