Five things we learned in the Union’s 3-1 loss to Toronto FC

Marco is going to take some time to develop chemistry with his new teammates, but his movements, vision and instinct to turn and shoot are going to bring fans to their feet many times this season at Talen Energy Stadium. In scoring the Union’s only goal against Toronto, a decisive penalty in the 73rd minute, he showed that he is going to be the man the Union look to to provide their offensive spark this season. He had three shots on goal and took free kicks and corners from the left. Just a few minutes after his penalty, he nearly scored again, throwing himself into a melee in front of Toronto keeper Alex Bono, with the ball barely being cleared off the line.
