“We create our own luck.”
The phrase often repeated by Philadelphia Union coach Jim Curtin came to fruition in the final minutes against CF Montréal Saturday night. And it was 17-year-old homegrown Quinn Sullivan who proved its meaning when he scored the equalizer in the 87th minute to help the Union earn a 1-1 draw and a valuable point at home.
The Union’s struggles in the final third have been a concern all season, but in the Montréal game, their chances were hampered by congestion in the box and their inability to find the target.
