Three-To-One And Done: Toronto FC 3-1 Philadelphia Union

The Philadelphia Union made their return to the playoffs for the first time in five years following an extremely rough period of numerous disappointing seasons. Entering Toronto as the 6th seed, they were underdogs and while the Union did not disgrace themselves in embarrassing fashion they were outplayed by a superior team en route to a 3-1 defeat and elimination from the 2016 MLS Cup.

Following a somewhat jittery start to the match, the Philadelphia Union conceded a goal they most certainly will have wish they had not conceded. Jozy Altidore's awkward first touch had given Ken Tribbett an easy clearance opportunity, however the Union defender made a mess of it ostensibly chipping it back to Altidore for a run at goal.
