Anatomy of a Goal: The Crew’s first goal of 2023 is scored by the Philadelphia Union

Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from a previous Columbus Crew match. For match one, a 4-1 loss, of the 2023 MLS season, we look at Jakob Glesnes’s own goal, created by a Cucho Hernandez pass and an Alex Matan run, that briefly gave the Crew the lead in the team’s season opening loss at the Philadelphia Union.

Here is a look at Columbus’s first goal of the 2023 season.

The new-look Columbus side took the field for the first time in 2023 with a lineup that surprised everyone not named Wilfried Nancy.
