Episode 348 - Philadelphia Union Fall 1-0 to NYCFC, Winless in Four of Last Five

The Philadelphia Union fell to NYCFC by a score of 1-0, leaving the Union winless in four of their last five games. The biggest storyline from the game was Andre Blake's absence from the matchday squad due to an adductor injury, which meant Andrew Rick started his second game of the season. Todd discusses his thoughts on the game, covering topics including: the attack's recent struggles, a costly defensive mistake by another Union centerback, and the Union's current winless run. Finally, Todd ends the show with Blunder of the Week, awarded to Kylian Mbappé for his tackle on Alavés' Antonio Blanco.
