Union
A very hearty thank you and big congratulations to Kyle Nakazawa for his wonderfully successful
Team Dinner charity event on Thursday night in support of autism awareness. The PSP had the
pleasure of dining with Amobi Okugo, one of the many Union players who made the time to support the
event.
The Philly Soccer Page " The Union, Jorge Gonzalez and Jean Alexandre...
Seriously. Let's maintain perspective here. We have the luxury of complaining about only drawing
with Real Salt Lake. In the world of MLS soccer, that is a first-world problem.
The Article in Which We Compare Soccer Games to Mixtapes | Philly Union Talk
One of the golden rules of mixtape assemblage: make sure the first song after the flop is fresh,
meaningful.
"How do you justify that?" Peter Nowak asked rhetorically.
Nowak echoed what many have been asking for years. Consistency is a major problem for MLS
referees. How, Nowak wondered, do you prepare guys for games when you have no idea how a ref will
handle things?
Before the playoffs come, someone at US Soccer or MLS has to answer: How do you justify
that?
In a game in which the Philadelphia Union dominated possession for large portions and created
numerous chances, Fabian Espindola scored a second-half equalizer to give Real Salt Lake a 1-1 draw
at PPL Park. The draw preserves the Union's undefeated record this year at PPL, but it was a game
they deserved to win.
Don't be fooled by the 2-1 final score...it was never really that close.
The match got off to a "great" start with an inexplicable decision by Jorge Gonzalez to deny the
Dynamo a clear advantage and instead whistle play dead for a free kick. His quick whistle cost
Houston a 2 on 1 break on goal.
