Philadelphia Union lit up the scoreboard on Saturday in front of an electric crowd of 17,880 on Sons of Ben Appreciation Night at Talen Energy Stadium in a 3-1 win over FC Dallas. With the victory, the Union are now 7-1-0 in their last eight regular-season matches at Talen Energy Stadium.
The Union were firing on all cylinders from the moment the whistle blew to start the match. Philadelphia dominated tempo throughout the first 15 minutes of the match, and their hard work came to fruition in the 17th minute thanks to beautiful teamwork.
The sequence started after Chris Pontius did most of the grunt work, keeping possession in the box from the FCD defense.
