They say that defense wins championships. If Jakob Glesnes plays every match like he did Sunday night against D.C. United, championship success is in the Philadelphia Union’s future.
It was not the prettiest of wins Sunday night in Washington D.C. for the Philadelphia Union. Save Kacper Przybylko’s winning goal at the end of the first half, the Union saw themselves mostly on the defensive against United. The Union were outshot and out-possessed over 90 minutes, but still found a way to remain undefeated on the road this season, looking in control even while defending.
