PHILADELPHIA UNION vs COLUMBUS CREW SC PPL PARK, Chester, Pa.

September 12, 2015 (WEEK 28, MLS Game #276) 7 p.m. ET (TCN-Phi; TWCS-OH)

Two teams in the thick of the chase for playoff placings in the Eastern Conference meet for a third time this season when Philadelphia Union play host to Columbus Crew SC on Saturday evening at PPL Park. Union come into the game a point out of the top six and the available playoff spots, coming back for a late 2-1 win at the San Jose Earthquakes on the road last weekend. Crew SC sit just a point outside the top two in the division, their four-game undefeated run put to an end in a 3-0 home loss to FC Dallas last weekend. REFEREE: Jose Carlos Rivero.

The teams are meeting for the third time this season. Ethan Finlay scored a goal and set up two others, and Kei Kamara scored a goal and added an assist, as Crew SC took a 4-1 win April 25 in Columbus. Union returned the favor with a 3-0 victory June 3 at PPL Park, as Sebastien Le Toux scored a goal and assisted on another.

The win in the last match ended a four-game Crew SC winning streak in the series. The last had come in a 3-0 victory June 5, 2013 at PPL Park.

Crew SC have never lost to Union in Columbus. They have won six of seven meetings there all-time, with one draw, including the last three matches in the Ohio state capitol.

Coaches record: Gregg Berhalter vs. PHI: P5 W4 L1 D0 … Jim Curtin vs. COL P4 W1 L3 D0 LAST MEETING (MLS)

Union took the lead shortly before halftime. From a counterattack, Maurice Edu started the break and laid the ball off to Cristian Maidana, who slid it into Sebastien Le Toux in the box. Le Toux’s cutback pass across the face of the goal then found C.J. Sapong for a tap-in.

The lead was doubled in the 52nd minute. After scooping up a ball, Crew SC goalkeeper Steve Clark ran forward in the box to roll the ball out before slipping, losing control of the ball and leaving the net unattended. Vincent Nogueira took advantage of the massive error with a cheeky chip from about 25 yards out that nestled into the net.

Six minutes later, Union went up 3-0 when fullback Sheanon Williams made a storming run down the right sideline, combining with Sapong before setting up Le Toux for a close-range finish.

PHILADELPHIA UNION (4-2-3-1): Brian Sylvestre - Sheanon Williams, Maurice Edu, Richard Marquez, Fabinho - Brian Carroll, Vincent Nogueira (Zach Pfeffer 79) - Sebastien Le Toux, Cristian Maidana, Andrew Wenger (Eric Ayuk Mbu 78) - Fernando Aristeguieta (C.J. Sapong 37).

MLS GAME INFORMATION

PHILADELPHIA UNION Philadelphia Union won for a second time in the last three matches, coming back for a late 2-1 win against the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday evening at Avaya Stadium. Union are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 30 points from 28 matches. LAST MATCH

The opener came just past the hour mark. A driven cross from Quakes fullback Shaun Francis was ruled to have been deflected by the hand of Fabinho, and referee Ismail Elfath awarded San Jose a penalty. Chris Wondolowski caught Philadelphia goalkeeper John McCarthy guessing the wrong way to convert the spot kick.

Union pulled even in the 74th minute. Raymon Gaddis put in a cross from the right and substitute Conor Casey nodded home, evening the score at 1-1. It was the first goal allowed by the Quakes in nearly 7-1/2 hours of play.

Union struck again with the game-winner in the 86th minute, and again it was Casey, as Tranquillo Barnetta’s free kick found him inside the penalty area for an open header.

Union manager Jim Curtin made three changes to the team that fell by the game’s only goal in a loss to the New England Revolution at PPL Park. John McCarthy came in between the posts for Andre Blake, Michael Lahoud came into the midfield in place of Brian Carroll, and Eric Ayuk Mbu started in midfield for the suspended Cristian Maidana.

PHILADELPHIA UNION (4-2-3-1): John McCarthy - Raymon Gaddis, Steven Vitoria, Richard Marquez, Fabinho - Michael Lahoud, Vincent Nogueira (Warren Creavalle 90) - Eric Ayuk Mbu (Andrew Wenger 89), Tranquillo Barnetta, Sebastien Le Toux (Conor Casey 71) - C.J. Sapong.

TEAM NEWS Union won their second consecutive game away from PPL Park, their road undefeated run now at three

matches. They have not won in Chester in a league game since July 11. “I told our guys at halftime that no one’s going to help us,” Union manager Jim Curtin said. “We’re not going to

get calls from the referees. We have to play through it no matter what and stick together. They really showed a lot of fight and resiliency. The tough PK goes against us and they stuck together and got two goals.”

Conor Casey scored a pair of goals off the substitutes’ bench, his second and third goals this season, and the 11th multiple-goal game of his MLS career, his first since netting two goals in back-to-back games May 31 and June 7, 2014.

“It felt good,” Casey said. “It’s been a while. It always feels good to score. As a forward, that’s what you think about. It was a great ball from Ray [Gaddis] and I was in the right spot.”

All three of Casey’s goals this season have come after he has been brought on as a substitute (also netting July 18 at Toronto FC). Before this season, just one of Casey’s 68 career goals in MLS came after he was introduced as a substitute.

“Conor came in and got us two huge goals,” said Curtin. “He’s had a very good week in training, he’s kept his head up. He’s been a real veteran and a positive guy in the locker room even though he hasn’t been playing a lot. When he got his time, he certainly took advantage of it.”

Tranquillo Barnetta made his fifth consecutive start, moving into the attacking central midfield role with the suspension to Cristian Maidana, and played the full 90 minutes for the first time in his MLS career. He collected his first MLS assist.

“Tranquillo is a guy who we brought here to be a leader,” said Curtin. “He is a presence in the locker room, he is a guy who has been in the big game – he has been in the Champions League – he knows what it takes to get results similar to [the San Jose game].”

With Andre Blake away on international duty with Jamaica, John McCarthy returned between the posts. He was in goal for a Union victory for the first time in MLS play since making his league debut in a 2-1 win vs. New York City FC on April 11.

Eric Ayuk Mbu returned to the starting lineup after coming off the substitutes’ bench in back-to-back games, playing 89 minutes in a wide midfield spot. Michael Lahoud also came back into the team after a one-match absence.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

COLUMBUS CREW SC Columbus Crew SC had their undefeated streak put to an end after four games, falling 3-0 to FC Dallas on Sunday evening at Mapfre Stadium. Crew SC are in third place in the Eastern Conference with 41 points from 28 matches. LAST MATCH

Crew SC could have taken an early lead, after Jack McInerney went to ground after shoulder-to-shoulder contact with Matt Hedges in the FCD box and referee Baldomero Toledo pointed to the spot. But Crew SC playmaker Federico Higuain stroked the resulting penalty kick wide of the target in the 24th minute.

FC Dallas opened the scoring in the 27th minute. From a corner kick, FCD striker David Texeira was left free to head Kellyn Acosta's delivery to an unmarked Atiba Harris at the right post, and he headed home from a tight angle.

The second came in the 69th minute. With Crew SC pushed forward, Harris thumped a clearance into the path of Michael Barrios and he blazed through on a solo counterattack capped by a savvy finish over goalkeeper Steve Clark.

Barely two minutes later the third FCD goal came, as Barrios broke away into the clear yet again. While Clark made a big save on his shot, Texeira took advantage of the 'keeper being stranded well off his line by drilling a low finish inside the far post.

Crew SC head coach Gregg Berhalter made five changes to the team that defeated New York City FC 2-1 at Yankee Stadium. Hector Jimenez, Gaston Sauro and Chris Klute all came into the back four for Harrison Afful, Tyson Wahl and Waylon Francis, Ben Speas started out wide in place of Cedrick Mabwati, and Jack McInerney came in up top for Kei Kamara.

COLUMBUS CREW SC (4-2-3-1): Steve Clark - Hector Jimenez, Gaston Sauro (Tyson Wahl 7), Michael Parkhurst, Chris Klute - Tony Tchani, Wil Trapp - Ethan Finlay, Federico Higuain, Ben Speas (Mohammed Saeid 58) - Jack McInerney (Aaron Schoenfeld 69)

TEAM NEWS Crew SC saw their four-game undefeated streak (3-0-1) come to an end, their first defeat since Aug. 1, when

they lost 5-2 at Orlando City SC. The defeat also put an end to a seven-game undefeated run at Mapfre Stadium, matching their longest stretch

without a loss at home since a 12-game run over the 2012-13 seasons. “The guys didn’t give up, and that’s the thing – they kept going. I’m extremely disappointed with the result but

I’m not disappointed in the effort and it’s a good lesson for us, it really is,” said Crew SC head coach Gregg Berhalter. “There was a moment that we didn’t handle well, that first corner kick, and that’s the game right there and it’s unfortunate.”

Crew SC were shut out at the attacking end for the first time since July 11. The blanking also ended a run of seven consecutive matches scoring multiple goals.

“Give them a lot of credit. That was the best defensive performance we’ve seen all year. It really was. And we didn’t have enough answers for it. We tried, we kept trying, but we didn’t have the answers,” Berhalter said.

Gaston Sauro made his Crew SC and MLS debut, starting in central defense. But the appearance lasted just seven minutes before he was forced off the field after suffering a clash of heads.

“It was so short in terms of the timing of it; it’s hard to tell. What I would say is that it’s unfortunate for him, making his debut, and we’re anxiously waiting the news of how he is. But it’s tough – you burn a substitute two minutes into the game on a head injury,” said Berhalter.

Jack McInerney made his first start since coming to Crew SC from the Montréal Impact, playing the lone out-and-out striker role and going 69 minutes.

“You have to attack differently, and we had the plan of putting balls in front of the goal on the ground, that’s how we got the PK. And then looking for cutback spaces as well,” said Berhalter. “We know Jack’s a very good runner inside the penalty box so we wanted to get him the ball early behind their line.”

Ben Speas made his first start in an MLS match since April 8, the fourth league game of the season, coming into a wide midfield role and playing 58 minutes.

Chris Klute made his first start since Aug. 8, coming in at left back and playing 90 minutes. “Against a very compact defense the movements have to be precise. They have to be fast, they have to be

precise and we lacked a little bit of that. They were there, the movements were certainly there,” Berhalter said. “But some of the precision was off, but the guys that came in did a good job. If you look at [Chris] Klute, what he was doing, up and down, never stopping – that’s impressive for a guy who hasn’t played that much in a while.”

Match overviewSaturday´s MLS regular season matchup will be the third between the Philadelphia Union and the Columbus Crew SC this season.

The Union have a 4-9-1 all-time record against Colombus, but have never won an away game against the side from Ohio. The Union look to take advantage of the home field advantage and grab another crucial 3 points.

The two teams last met on June 3rd, 2015 in PPL Park in which the Union produced three goals to win 3-0. Sebastien Le Toux scored once and gave one assist.

The Union enter Saturday´s match after beating one of the hottest teams in MLS 2-1. Two late goals helped Philly beat San Jose. Meanwhile, Columbus are coming off a 3-0 loss to FC Dallas.

PHILADELPHIA UNION VS. Columbus Crew SC

2

LAST MATCH- PHILADELPHIA UNION VS. San Jose The Union struggled to create chances in the first half, but maintained a stellar defense to avoid giving up the lead. San Jose was awarded a penalty for Fabinho’s handball in the 62nd minute. 1-0 San Jose.

The Union did not give up on the match though. Conor Casey was brought on in the 71st minute and game changed right away. Raymon Gaddis gave a beautiful curling cross and the veteran Casey used all of his neck muscles to guide it in to the back of the net. 1-1.

Philly were not done yet, as they kept advancing and controlling the midfield. In the 85th minute, the Union drew a foul and Tranquillo Barnetta took the free kick from outside the box. He placed it high and right in the middle of the the pen-alty box. Casey pounced again on the chance and put in a beautiful no look header.

Philadelphia (30 points, 8-14-6, 7th in the Eastern Conference)The Union are coming off a 2-1 win against the San Jose Earthquakes. With those three points, they have set them-selves up for a potential run into the playoffs and beyond. They still have no room error, but the momentum can play a big part in their run. The sixth-10th place teams in the Eastern Conference are only seperated by four points.

The Union will take on Columbus this Saturday at PPL Park. With another win here, they could put themselves in a fa-vorable situation.

The Union are also preparing to host the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup championship against Sporting Kansas City on Sept. 30. It will be the second consecutive year the team will host the U.S. Open Cup final.

Columbus Crew SC (41 points, 11-9-8, 3rd in the Eastern Conference) Columbus Crew are coming off a disappointing 3-0 loss to Western Conference third place FC Dallas. Although the team had a off week, they still boast many accomplishments this season. They currently have a player in the top five of almost every major stat category in the MLS (goals, assists, shots, shots on goal and saves).

Columbus also have the fifth most points in the league and sit comfortably in a playoff spot.

Being away from home has been a strugle for the team, as they have only managed to win three out of 13 total games. Columbus are also tied for the fourth most away goals in the league.

LAST MATCH- PHILADELPHIA UNION VS. San Jose Union Head Coach Jim Curtin

On the win against San Jose

I thought the guys put a ton into the game. Missing a few key starters, I thought a lot of the guys stepped up and had a good mentality. I thought defensively as a team we really limited one of the hottest teams in the league in San Jose. We talked about before the game people remember how you finish a season, and that’s the one thing we can still control right now is how we finish. Obviously, we have an Open Cup final and six big games left, so, the guys took the first step and got a good win on the road. We recognize, though, that will mean nothing if we don’t do the same thing against Columbus.

On Concor Casey

There were weeks when I didn’t pick him, but there were also a good 10 to 12, maybe more, weeks where he was injured. That’s part of the game, injuries are part of it, but he’s in a good spot right now, a good way. He got going a little bit in those two games that we started him then he had the injury. Then he had the difficult red card against New York, and then another injury. It’s been stop and start all year. You just hope you can kind of get hot at the right time and put a couple of results together. Listen, in front of goal, there’s no one better on our team, when balls bounce to him in the box, he finishes them. That’s skill that he’s had for his whole career — US national team, Colorado, in Europe, and now with us. When balls bounce to him in the box, he’s as good as anyone at burying them. So, we need to get him oppor-tunities and reps in the game, and him continue to be sharp in practice, and hopefully he plays a major role down the stretch here

On Richie Marquez and Steven Vitoria playing together

They’re doing really well. Steven’s a communicator, he talks a lot, he keeps everyone organized back there. He’s done a very good job. I thought this last game was much better than New England in terms of the passing out of the back, he’s started a lot of our attacks with some good diagonal balls. Very happy with his game in terms of how aggressive he was, that was the most physical and aggressive I’ve seen him in terms of attacking balls in the air, winning head balls, sliding out and going to ground and winning big tackles for us. Again, confidence goes a long way. I think he’s confi-dent right now, he’s playing well.

Richie is also very good in the air, so now you have two big bodies back there. And Richie will listen and do what he’s told, and can do it well because he has the speed to do it, can cover a ton of ground. Steven can kind of point and tell him where to go and Richie does a good job of listening. So, good partnership right now. Again, not going to get ahead of myself because we still have conceded too many goals this year, but those guys, you’re starting to see some conti-nuity and that is critical with defenders, you want them to be playing next to each other, game in and game out, going through the wars and recognizing the moments in the game where stuff gets crazy and you have to be kind of that anchor back there and get through the tough moments and preserve leads, and preserve things when you’re tied or behind, keep goals at a minimum.

On the next game against Columbus Crew

With Columbus, they’re a team that baits you into high pressing and then can kind of expose you if you’re a step late — if one guy’s a step late there’s sort of a domino effect. That’s not something we want to get into with them because you’ve seen this year when teams press Columbus they pick them apart. When teams have sat back against them they’ve had some losses, as recently as Dallas on their home field [last weekend]. We’ve looked at that, we obviously look at the tape, and the best way to approach Columbus, even though it’s on our home field, might be to have the mindset of making them really break us down, as opposed to flying out at them and playing into their strengths.

He’s another one that just kept going. He probably has heavy legs and he didn’t stop.” ... also from Jardy’s piece, a quote from Trapp on the experience of his first camp with the U-23s, their final camp ahead of CONCACAF Olympic qualifying: “I’m happy to play and get the 90 minutes in really my first camp with them. Assimilation happens pretty quickly when the core group is guys I was in the U-20s with, so it didn’t take long to really get back into the groove with them. It worked out actually really well and I’m happy with it.”
