First half goals from Anthony Fontana, Andrew Wooten, and Fafa Picault led Philadelphia Union to a 3-0 win over Pumas UNAM of Mexico’s LigaMX. Picault picked up a goal and an assist on the night operating out of an attacking midfield role, while Sergio Santos and Matthew Real dominated the left side of the pitch.
Pumas went down to ten men late in the first half when Juan Iturbe sliced through Picault from behind.
Anthony Fontana operated alongside Alejandro Bedoya in the midfield during the first half, and he sought to impose himself throughout the game. When Fafa Picault was taken down at the top of the box on the left, Bedoya made way for Fontana to take a hit.
