Philadelphia Union escapes Orlando with narrow 1-0 victory

The Philadelphia Union picked up another victory on Saturday night, this time against Orlando City SC. While the Union didn’t win in any decisive fashion, a goal from Daniel Gazdag was enough to take down the Eastern Conference opponents.

Both sides looked even through the first half, though Philadelphia showed greater opportunity in the final third. A deep shot from Julian Carranza nearly gave the Union an early lead, as did two corner kicks in the last 12 minutes of the half.

Gazdag, as he has throughout the season, gave the Union its first goal from a nice flick on from Jakob Glesnes header.
