In the 50th minute, all looked lost for the Philadelphia Union.
Just as they had early on in their previous match against Minnesota United, the Union looked disjointed to start out. They looked like a team still ironing out the kinks, shaking off the rust, and whatever other cliche that applies. Already down 1-0 after an unlucky goal off of a deflection in the 32nd minute, Djordje Mihalovic looked to provide the dagger in the 50th.
Mihalovic waltzed right down the middle of the Union defense after a turnover to put the hosts up 2-0.
