The Shield defense starts now. The Philadelphia Union will look to get three points when they open on the road against the current MLS Cup winner’s Columbus Crew. So it isn’t the easiest way to start a defense. Let also hope the boys in blue do better in the state of Ohio, then they did in 2020. In three trips to the Buckeye State, the U was only able to net 1 goal.
Right now the Crew have won the last three games against the Union. Over this span, Crew SC have outscored the Union 5-1.
