The Philadelphia Union defeated CF Montréal by a score of 2-1, earning their third straight win. With that victory, the Union are off to their best start through 11 games, with 22 points. Todd discusses the game and talks about the Union’s lack of chances but how they still found a way to grind out a win, Mikael Uhre’s numbers against Montréal, and three straight weeks of strikers coming off the bench and scoring. Todd also discusses the Blunder of the Week, which includes the Colorado Rapids not flying Chris Armas out for their game against D.C. United.
