Philadelphia Union knocked out FC Cincinnati in Ohio

Leagues Cup: Philadelphia Union defeated FC Cincinnati 4-2 away to advance to the quarterfinals.

Philadelphia Union defeated FC Cincinnati 4-2 on the road and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup.

Tai Baribo scored two goals again Cincyas in the great game they played during the MLS regular season.

Gazdag contributed two assists, Quinn Sullivan 1 goal and 1 assist and Andre Blake was a key player in achieving another ticket to the quarterfinals, as in 2023.

FCC has had a strange run in recent matches: many goals conceded and sometimes they respond, as happened against NYCFC (4-2 with 4 goals in 10 minutes).

This time there was no “Magic”, not even with Magic Acosta on the playing field, and Cincy once again he said goodbye to the Leagues Cup without finishing among the best.

In the quarterfinals, they will play at home against Mazatlán at Subaru Park.

First half without goals

The teams had not even settled in when Alejandro Bedoya scored a sensational save for Mikael Uhre, who finished with a first-time effort to make it 1-0.

But after three minutes of too much deliberation on the VAR, it was confirmed that the Dane was offside.

It looked much better Philly because after the restart, José Martínez forced Celentano to make a save with a good shot.

Cincy He had a very good one with Sergio Santos and a slap finish with his boot, after Obinna’s foray into the rival area.

And also the best but we had to wait until we were 35, because Philadelphia was cancelling the circuits well for Pat Noonan, who was Jim Curtin’s assistant for 4 years in Phillyso they know each other well.

It was at 35 when Sergio Santos came face to face with Andre Blake, but he was not selfish and looked for Kubo, who was better positioned.

Kubo preferred to shoot from the right rather than the left, and his shot hit the post with an empty goal.

Yedlin braved the bullets to save FCC when Baribo beat Celentano at 40 minutes, in one of the last clear chances of the first half.

Philly pega

Only 5 minutes into the second half, Mikael Uhre scored again.

And this time there was no offside or anything to cancel it out.

Great pass from Gazdag and better finish from Uhre, first time, left footed, surprising Celentano at the near post.

After a lost ball in attack, Mikael Uhre was given all the time in the world on a counterattack.

He waited for company, looked for Gazdag, who looked for Tai Baribo and the Israeli invented a great goal, hooked it, settled in and sank it into the corner for 2-0.

Discount Cincy

With Acosta on the court, still not in his best form, Cincy It’s something else and he proved it by immediately discounting.

Fantastic play by Fought Acosta, however, lost one-on-one to Blake.

The rebound fell to Pavel Bucha, who did not despair and shot where only the ball could find the net, to score the discount.

Blake, figura

Since Andre Blake returned to goal, Philadelphia Union has regained its “soul” and has not lost.

As usual, the goalkeeper began to shine to save his team.

He blocked two Orellano missiles that were looking for an angle, one with the help of the stick, and a rebound to Yuya Kubo in the second that will be one of the saves of the tournament.

He equaled it

As well as Philly It was 2 to 0, Cincy tied it.

Notable play by Acosta on the left, wall pass and he went to look for it, turned, crossed to the middle and DeAndre Yedlin appeared to, with a soft touch, equalize the actions.

Yedlin’s first goal in Ohio.

Two up again

And just like that Cincy tied it, Philly went back up 2.

As soon as he took the ball out of the middle, Quinn Sullivan looked for Tai Baribo, turned outside the area and scored a goal down to the right.

Another blow came when Quinn Sullivan shot twice. Celentano rebounded long and on the second he had an assist with a deflection for the final 4-2 for the visitors.
