The Edelman household was on its feet as the New York Red Bulls II broke on the counterattack against the Philadelphia Union II. Jake LaCava was the one leading the charge with the ball at his feet, but the Edelmans were more concerned with the run of 17-year-old Daniel Edelman to the left of LaCava. RBNYII outnumbered the Union defenders three to two, but Edelman seemed hesitant to make a run in behind their backline.
“Do it! Do it! Do it!” Ari Edelman – Daniel’s father – recalled his younger son Eric yelling at Daniel through their television.
