In just 11 seasons the Union are gearing up to play in their fifth semifinal game. Wait did I just say semifinals and five? New fans may not realize this but while the Union have only played in just 6 MLS Cup playoff games, under Jim Curtin the team has been really good in the U.S Open Cup. That streak looks to continue here in the MLS is Back tournament, with the U looking to nab their first piece of hardware.
Now if this is your first taste of the Philadelphia Union, we have a lot to catch you up on.
