Union goalkeeper Andre Blake appeared to be extremely lucky during Sunday's 3-0 Major League Soccer League win over the New England Revolution when a Lee Nguyen 26-yard blast on a direct kick hit both posts.
The one person who didn't feel it was good fortune was Blake himself, which gives a little insight into the confidence the third-year keeper and first-year full-time starter has in his ability.
"Well, people normally say you're lucky when you hit the post, but for me, I don't really think that way because the post is not inside the goal - it's more like the ball hit the post and goes in - so you know it's not like it even saves you if it hits the post and doesn't go in," Blake said.
