Luke Martelli caps comeback with late winner for Philadelphia Union U17s over Bethesda SC

After suffering a 3-0 loss on the road to DC United to kick off the second half of the MLS Next season, the Philadelphia Union U17 team found themselves in a hole again down 3-1 in the second half to Bethesda SC on Saturday.

The Union fell behind 2-0 in the first half but were able to pull one back before halftime when Logan Oliver headed in a Luke Martelli free kick. But Bethesda would regain the lead on a golazo from distance in the second half to make it 3-1.

Three substitutes off the bench — Noe Uwimana, Marcos Zambrano and Gael Medrano — sparked the comeback.
