Yesterday, in the MLSa very unusual episode occurred. Philadelphia Unionwho were losing 3-0 in Kansasended up overcoming the result with four goals in nine crazy minutes. After conceding a double from Andre Luiz and Wyatt Meyer’s first goal in the MLS, which left them 3-0 behind before the 16th minute, the Union got closer on the scoreboard (3-2) thanks to goals from Bruno Damiani (64th minute) and Cavan Sullivan (66th minute).

This set the stage for Milan Iloski’s tying goal in the 68th minute, followed by an own goal by SKC left back Zoran Bassong in the 73rd minute, which capped Philadelphia’s comeback. In this way, Union (10-10-6, 36 points) extended its winning streak to five games and improved its record to 9-0-2 in its last 11 regular season games.

Cavan Sullivan (Philadelphia), 16, who on Thursday received his first call-up to the United States senior team for friendlies in September and October, scored his sixth goal in the last six games. Likewise, he was credited with an assist on Damiani’s goal; It was his twelfth assist of the season – the highest number on the team – and the fifth in the last five games.
