Union battled Eastern-Conference-leading Montreal Impact to a 1-1 draw at Stade Saputo. Here are the major talk-points of Saturday's match, eh.
1). The short week: Philadelphia Union hosted LA Galaxy this past Wednesday, while Montreal Impact did not play during the week. Jim Curtin only made two changes in his starting XI from the previous match, and Union's ability to play high-press was affected by it. One of the differences in the starting lineup was at left back, where Ray Gaddis started in place of Fabinho. Ray is a really good athlete, but when he gets himself into the final third, his lack of quality is glaring.
