Set pieces the difference-maker for Philadelphia Union in win over Portland

It was the best performance of the season for the Philadelphia Union, and they didn’t even score a goal from open play.

The Philadelphia Union decisively defeated the visiting Portland Timbers 3-0 in their final game before international break. It was the most in control the Union have looked all year so far during their MLS campaign, and they did all of their damage when the ball was dead.

The Union scored three goals, all of them coming off of set pieces Sunday evening. The first goal was scored by none other than Kacper Przybylko.
