Off a heartbreaking loss in penalties in the US Open Cup, the Philadelphia Union convincingly dismantled the New England Revolution, 3-0. CJ Sapong, Ilsinho, and Roland Alberg all chipped in with goals.
The match got off to a great start for the Union. In just the second minute, referee Chris Penso awarded Philadelphia a penalty kick as he whistled Benjamin Angoua for a handball in the box.
Despite protests from the Revs about the call, CJ Sapong stepped up to the spot and scored his ninth goal of the season, tying his career-high, to put the Union up 1-0.
