New Record
What a night for CJ Sapong. The Union had three goals, and Sapong was involved in every single one. In the first half, Sapong tracked down a rebound from a Marcus Epps shot in the 20th minute. He biked a pass to Ilsinho, who rocketed the volley home for the Union's first goal of the match. Then in the 36th minute, Sapong went in for a breakaway, where he was taken down from behind by Columbus's Jonathan Mensah, who was given a straight red card. Unfortunately, the Union missed the ensuing penalty.
In the second half, it was more of the same.
