It’s possible that Saturday’s 4-1 over Orlando City SC doesn’t mean much for Columbus Crew SC in the grand scheme of things. If the Black & Gold don’t get their act together and perform at a similar level in the remaining six contests, that win will go down as one good game in a season of letdowns.
But it’s also possible it could mean something more.
“It feels good,” head coach Gregg Berhalter reflected on the game Tuesday following training.
It’s been a rough year for Crew SC and Saturday was just the sixth win of the season for a club that had 15 such results the year prior.
