Minnesota United came up short in front of the home crowd at TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday night. Here are three key takeaways from the match.
Francisco Calvo is for real
Though he’s been pretty good all season, it’s taken a consistent back line to show how good the Costa Rican international really is. Though the rest of the back line was also solid on Saturday, Calvo stood out.
Francisco was a force, using his athleticism to win aerial battles, as well as intercepting passes, and winning nearly every tackle. He was Minnesota’s best player on the night, and is a key reason that the Loons only lost 1-0.
