Sensing the need for an adjustment, Jim Curtin shuffled his lineup by sliding Roland Alberg into the number ten role and shifting captain Alejandro Bedoya back to the number eight role.
Revitalized by a different lineup, the Philadelphia Union came out on the press and attacked heavily in the first half.
The Union’s press gave New York City FC problems throughout the first half.
NYCFC get in a bit of trouble with the ball at the back (crazy right?) but Alberg's attempt is poor. #PHIvNYC pic.
