Philadelphia Union Week 2 MVP

Last week's MVP voting was a landslide. This week things were much closer.

Drew Gobrecht: Blake. Pontius did extremely well to finish off his two chances. Hardly just poachers goals, either. He was making smart runs on both, and the second was from the edge of the box.
