PSP’s new weekly feature highlights the Philly player we feel most shined this week at any level (pro, amateur, youth, etc.). This week, Philadelphia Union captain Danny Califf earns the nod after shutting down Sebastien Le Toux, Atiba Harris, and the Vancouver Whitecaps.
The Union are in the middle of the league in number of shots but close to bottom when it comes to the number and percentage that are on target.
Union roundup including Califf named to best XI, power rankings, the Nowak-Vermes flip-flop and more. West Chester United eliminated fro US Open Cup qualification. USWNT thumps Brazil 3-0. More news.
On the plus side, the defense was much improved for the Union. The offense, however, was not.
What Saturday’s game says about the state and future of Philadelphia Union and their fans.
