Columbus Crew SC earned three valuable points on the road by blanking the New England Revolution 2-0 at Gillette Stadium this past Saturday. A Zack Steffen penalty save plus a Gyasi Zardes brace were the highlights. But then there was the lack of dominating possession by Columbus, which is an issue that needs to be resolved.
Even though the Crew has only played two games thus far in the 2019 regular season, there should be more cohesion with this familiar Crew squad that has a new coach in Caleb Porter but one who leads with a similar tactical philosophy as his predecessor, Gregg Berhalter.
