Union Edge Columbus on Room’s Second-Minute Own Goal
The Philadelphia Union scored less than two-minutes into the game on an Eloy Room own goal and held on the rest of the way in an entertaining 1-0 win over the Columbus Crew Saturday evening at Subaru Park. With the win, the Union further clench their grip on first place, leading the Supporters’ Shield Standings with 16 points and continue the best start in club history.
The Union fielded what was perhaps their strongest lineup of the season, welcoming Mikael Uhre to the starting lineup for the first time.
