Wednesday’s match with Toronto FC was supposed to be the game that turned things around for Columbus Crew SC. This week was billed as one of the most important in recent memory, with two games against Eastern Conference opposition and a chance to move up the standings.
Wednesday came and left with just a point, despite playing a TFC side that left multiple stars at home.
The attention for Crew SC now turns to Saturday when long-time rivals D.C. United comes to MAPFRE Stadium. The Black & Red haven’t had the most successful season, but currently sit closer to the red line that indicates a playoff team than Columbus.
