Late rally comes up short in Union II’s first game in a month

It was another night of firsts for the Philadelphia Union II on Wednesday night in their return after three straight postponements due to Covid-19 cases, but despite a late rally they were unable to get a result against visiting Atlanta United 2.

Paxten Aaronson scored his first goal, Brandan Craig became the youngest player to wear the captain’s armband in team history and Sean Bettenhausen made his USL Championship debut in the game at Subaru Park, which was the first for the team since they beat New York Red Bulls II at home on August 5.
