A week after his MLS player of the week performance, David Accam showed his quality again, scoring once, as well as assisting a Marco Fabián strike. Accam also noticeably changed the name on the back of his jersey to Titti, which is a nickname he and his late father shared, to honor his father who passed away two weeks ago.
The Union started off the match dominating possession. The game was sloppy due to the downpour that lasted all match, with players on both teams slipping at inopportune times. The sloppy play resulted in a scoreless first half, with the Union struggling to find the final ball.
