The Philadelphia Union clinched the 2025 MLS Supporters' Shield with a gritty 1-0 victory over NYCFC, thanks to Mikael Uhre's lone goal. The Union set a new club record with 20 wins in 33 games, with one match still remaining. A win in their final game would also set a new club record for total points, bringing them to 69. Todd is joined by José Nuñez to discuss the Union's win over NYCFC and their clinching of home-field advantage throughout the playoffs by securing the Supporters' Shield. Topics include: Was that starting XI the best one moving forward? The Union's defensive emergence, how the Union won the Supporters' Shield (key wins and transfers), Andre Blake's thoughts on what he believes Bradley Carnell has brought to this team, and what winning the Supporters' Shield means to Alejandro Bedoya. Todd also ends the show with Blunder of the Week, which goes to MLS' Michele Giannone for asking Bradley Carnell about St. Louis CITY right after the Union clinched the Supporters' Shield.
