Columbus Crew SC came up short as the team missed its first opportunity to clinch a playoff spot in the scoreless tie with the Philadelphia Union at MAPFRE Stadium on Saturday. The Black & Gold controlled the game but couldn’t hurt their opponent and direct competitors for the fourth place in the Eastern Conference.
Here is how the players fared against the Union:
Zack Steffen (6.5) – The goalkeeper didn’t have much work to do in the game with the Union firing no shots on target. He was safe with the ball on his feet and when he had to collect some crosses in the penalty box and was brave to jump over Cory Burke when he had a chance to finish from short-range and earn a free kick.
