Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from Columbus Crew SC‘s previous match.
For match 19 of the 2018 MLS Season, we take a look at the 23rd minute goal from young Crew SC midfielder Eduardo Sosa that put Columbus up 2-0 as part of their 2-1 win over Real Salt Lake on Saturday.
Crew SC entered this match with multiple big absences. Sosa filled in for an injured Federico Higuain, Jon Kempin replaced an also injured Zack Steffen, and Hector Jimenez slotted into Milton Valenzuela’s spot with the young Argentine forced to sit out due to yellow card accumulation.
