It finally happened. After hearing about all the ways they couldn’t score for the last few weeks, the Philadelphia Union finally displayed a punch in their attack with a three-goal outburst to earn all three points on the day.
The Union opened up the game with a fiery intensity to attempt to end their bad spell of play. Despite a few chances to start the match, it was D.C. who opened up the scoring early on.
In the 7th minute, off a mishit Jack Elliott clearance, Yamil Asad found Luciano Acosta, who sent through Zoltan Steiber to put the visitors up a goal.
