It hasn't been the start to the season fans expected after the MLS Cup Final a year ago. Could a rematch with the team they beat to reach the title game be a recipe for success?
If we're being honest, it hasn't been a good season for Columbus Crew SC. Has the team played well at times, for certain stretches? Yes, but for a club that hosted the MLS Cup Final last December and returned all of the key pieces, a few good moments isn't good enough.
Some of that can be blamed on the loss of Kei Kamara.
