Late goal closes the door on Union U17s GA Cup run

One point would have seen the Philadelphia Union U17s advance to the Champions Division of the Generation adidas Cup and it was one point again that would have put them into the semifinals of the Premier Division.

Both were not meant to be in the 2017-18 edition of the GA Cup.

Calin Calaidjoglu found himself all alone at the far post and after chesting down a long cross from the right flank beat Kris Shakes in the 62nd minute with a rifled left-footed shot to break a 1-1 tie. The goal was enough for a 2-1 win that sent the Montreal Impact through to the semis.
