In his first game in his hometown, Fafa Picault gave his fans a show. Picault scored his third goal of the season in the 69th minute. Creating a turnover in the defensive end, Picault brought the ball up the pitch before finding CJ Sapong in the middle. He passed the ball, then went on a run, as Sapong hit him with a through ball in stride. Picault cut into the middle, and near the top of the box, ripped a shot into the back of the net to give the Union a 1-0 lead.
