Union lose 2-1 to Crew

The good:

• LeToux scored his 9th goal.
• Justin Mapp was in much better form and showed what he is capable of.
• Coudet.  He controls and calms things down in the midfield.  Also: slide tackles and lots of them.

The bad:

• We lost to the best team in the East.
  
• Our goal was on a weak penalty given.
• Despite outplaying Columbus in the first half we weren't able to take the lead into halftime.
• Allowing sub Lenhart to score 2 goals off his head.

The ugly:

• Califf was exceptionally slow and easily beaten.
• Our finishing.  We had several chances just yards away from the goal line yet finished none of them.
• Defensive passing gave the Crew a few counters they shouldn't have had.

Now we need 3 points on the road against Dallas more than ever this Sunday.  Hopefully the new defensive signing can get on the back line ASAP.  We need it.
