Three things we learned from the Union’s rout over Toronto FC

Wow. That was something else. To fit the Union’s win over Toronto FC from Saturday into just three lessons was a challenge. Nonetheless, let’s dive into the most important parts from Saturday’s victory.

The Striking Difference

The story of Saturday’s match was obviously Sergio Santos’ hat trick, and for good reason. Santos’ hat trick was the Union’s first since CJ Sapong’s in 2017, and only the fourth in all of club history. Santos has also had himself a good run in the last few games, carrying the offense in recent matches.

To contrast that, Kacper Przybylko hasn’t scored since the Union’s 1-4 victory over Montreal in New Jersey, where he notched a brace against the Canadian side.
