Alright, Union. Saturday you’re playing LA. Yes, that LA, the best team in the MLS right now. Yes, the ones who get their goals from league-leading scoremeister Edson Buddle, and their swagger from gracefully aging bendmeister Dave Beckham AND Premier League-worthy Landon Donovan. They’re kinda good.
But that’s no reason to approach them humbly. Here’s your pep talk.
Los Angeles should provide a stern test for our shaky expansion team. The Galaxy have opened the season undefeated with 4 wins and a draw in their first 5 games. After knocking off Salt Lake City, Houston, Chivas, and New England, the Galaxy were held to a goalless draw by Kansas City […]
Le Toux will miss Saturday’s match against the Galaxy, the players are told to focus and Sakiewicz says he would have made the team run more after Tuesday’s loss. Lori Lindsey is named WPS player of the month, the new USMNT home jersey is officially unveiled and more.
Philadelphia Union, meet the best team in the league. The Los Angeles Galaxy have the league’s best record, best player, top scorer, best coach and possibly the best back line. The Union won’t have leading scorer Sebastien Le Toux. We have the game preview.
Le Toux’s injury is not as bad as first feared, fewer than 500 season tickets still available for the Union, Emilio signs short term contract with DC United and more morning news.
After a very disappointing first half the Union looked set to charge back in the second with substitutions Moreno, Miglioranzi and Le Toux. And then came the injury to Le Toux, a much bigger loss than the match itself.
Coach Nowak talks about Le Toux’s injury, makes the team do laps after poor effort in loss against Red Bulls, a roundup of match reports, Lori Lindsey named WPS Player of the Week, Barcelona “fans” attack Jose Mourinho and more.
Sebastien Le Toux was carried off the field on a stretcher shortly after scoring late in Philadelphia Union’s 2-1 loss to the New York Red Bulls tonight.
The Union and the Red Bulls go at it again tonight, except this time it’s a U.S. Open Cup qualifier. It won’t be on TV, and the Red Bulls will sit some starters. Here’s a preview.
Red Bulls fans bring rocks, Ed Farnsworth doesn’t bring a banner, David Beckham and Geoff Cameron are out for the year, and UEFA Champions League resumes. Yep, it’s the daily news roundup. (And yep, I couldn’t find a good photo for today, so I gave you this.)
