After Philadelphia Union defeated New England Revolution 3-2, Jim Curtin saluted the resolve of his players at the end of a busy week.
“Grit and heart”
Curtin acknowledged that there were a lot of frenzied moments in a match that neither team could wrestle under control.
“In these Eastern Conference games down the stretch, a lot of times it isn’t so much about the beautiful soccer that’s played,” Curtin admitted, “It’s more about grit and heart and you saw that tonight from both teams.”
“I thought that our players made the badge proud tonight,” the Union coach added.
