After enduring a 3-1 home loss last weekend, the Union inflicted one on Houston Wednesday night in BBVA Compass Stadium. The match was quite even until a red card just before the hour mark gave Philly the opening they needed to collect a vital three points.
Volume play
The Union want their midfielders to get on the ball as often as possible and to continue trusting their ability to make plays even when passes don’t come off early in a match. Borek Dockal did this to perfection on Wednesday. The only two passes the Czech man connected in the box turned into goals, but he never wavered in the belief that his next final ball would be his best yet.
