Coming into Wednesday’s match against Minnesota United, Columbus Crew SC supporters did something that hasn’t been done yet this season: you collectively chose the correct starting lineup in all 11 positions. That lineup secured a 2-1 victory for Columbus in a match against the then fourth-place team in the Western Conference. But it wasn’t without drama.
With Darlington Nagbe out injured, you picked Fatai Alashe to start his fourth straight match in the midfield. His time on the field didn’t last long, as an injury saw Sebastian Berhalter take his place in the 19th minute.
