Fontana brace leads Philadelphia Union to win over DC United in final preseason match

CHESTER, PA — Anthony Fontana connected on a pair of goals in the first half and the Philadelphia Union cruised to a 2-0 win over DC United on a rainy day to pick up their first win of 2021 in their preseason finale at Subaru Park Wednesday afternoon.

Fontana connected early when he pounced on a ball on a poor clearance off his own ball sent into the box and easily beat DC United goalkeeper and Philadelphia Union original Chris Seitz in the third minute.

Fontana doubled the advantage in the 37th minute when Jack McGlynn’s shot attempt in the box was deflected and fell to Fontana’s feet for volley.
