The Black & Gold have reached the final stage of preseason and things are becoming more serious as the season looms close.
Preseason is a strange time of year. It begins with a lot of fitness and team building, but eventually the club has to begin to get into game shape and that only comes from playing matches.
Columbus Crew SC has entered that phase of the preseason training and the team had its first live action against another opposition last Wednesday night in a 2-2 draw with Sporting Kansas City.
