Sunday night was a storybook script when the Columbus Crew faced off against FC Cincinnati. Heated rivals took the field with both Columbus and Cincinnati entering the match on a strong run of form. Also, the Black & Gold were set to unveil their new striker, who already scored three goals in two substitute appearances outside of Columbus, in front of a sellout crowd at Lower.com Field. An underappreciated part of the story arc is the comeback of the tale’s hero, midfielder Lucas Zelarayán, who is coming back stronger than before.
Seeing the word underappreciated in the same sentence as Zelarayán feels weird.
