The Union destroyed an abject D.C. United team 4-0 behind Haris Medunjanin’s dominance in midfield, winning their second consecutive match.
The Union picked up their first victory since the Battle of Appomattox Court House. It isn’t, however, “10’s” across the board. This week’s player ratings highlights the heroes and acknowledges those with room to improve.
The Union rode a hat trick from C.J. Sapong to their first win of the season, 3-0 over New York Red Bulls.
Despite collecting their second clean sheet of the season, the Union settled for a 0-0 draw in Los Angeles. Some players shone brightly, while others were mere shadows on the pitch.
Philadelphia Union could not hold onto a three goal lead at home and continue to search for a win after a 3-3 draw with Montreal Impact.
The two worst teams in the Eastern conference square off this Saturday. Montreal is looking to build on their first victory of 2017. The winless streak is significant for the Union, but so is their four game losing streak. Is this the week Jim Curtin’s men change their fortune?
The Union fell to NYCFC 2-0 at home to remain winless on the season.
There might be help for the Union down on the farm from reserve players who have been showing well there. PSP’s Tim Jones evaluates Giliano Wijnaldum, Adam Najem, Marcus Epps, Jack Elliott and Auston Trusty for Union duty.
After 26 combined matches, a member of the Philadelphia Union organization has earned a win. Bethlehem Steel FC took three points from Cincinatti. With the result, one player stood out to earn PSP’s player of the week.
Bethlehem picked up their first win since July off the back of a Seku Conneh brace.
