The Union did something Saturday night that they had never done in their history. And for once, that was a good thing.
With goals from Marcus Epps, Borek Dockal, Ilsinho, and Keegan Rosenberry, the Union beat Real Salt Lake for the first time ever, 4-1, at Talen Energy Stadium.
RSL won all 11 previous meetings between the teams, and was the only team from the Union’s inaugural season that they had never beaten.
“We talked a lot about how if we did not back up the good performance in Montreal with another one, it would be meaningless,” said Curtin, whose team blanked Montreal last Saturday.
