Today’s Independence Day match is going to look a lot different than the Columbus Crew SC loss to Atlanta over the weekend. Away from home, this team has struggled to win games. Not a knock on Crew SC, but it is difficult in this league to do just that. So for this match, head coach Gregg Berhalter is trying something very different. Minnesota United is expected to retain their heavy counter-attacking play in the 4-2-3-1.
Several changes to the team sheet from Saturday:
- Lalas Abubakar makes his debut for the club, and in a start.
