Three things we learned from soccer in Ohio

The Philadelphia Union played… a soccer game against FC Cincinnati on Wednesday night, and after several straight wins, the Union went back to Philly with just 1 point.

Objectively, it was a boring game. However, there’s actually still some significant stuff to talk about us, so stay along for the ride.

Stylistic Adaptations (or lack thereof)

FC Cincinnati wasn’t expected to come out on the offensive Wednesday night. FCC normally sits back and wins games with the back line. Against the Union, however, they pushed forward and made the Union work. Now, this shouldn’t be that big of a problem, as the attacks weren’t that strong, and once the Union figured out what Cincinnati was trying to do, they could counter their efforts.
