Neither the Chicago Fire nor the Philadelphia Union had a great game. These are the moments that decided the outcome.
1.) Due to the untimely passing of Josh Yaro’s mother, he was a scratch against the Chicago Fire. Ken Tribbett started in his place. We offer our sincerest condolences to Josh and his family.
2.) Bad timing - Representing your country at the highest level is an honor, and seeing players on your team given that honor is always exciting. That being said, international duty claimed two of the Philadelphia Union’s most irreplaceable players in Andre Blake and Alejandro Bedoya.
