Just finished watching the streaming video of the US Open Cup soccer game between the Philadelphia Union and the NY Red Bulls at Red Bull Arena. Union win on penalty kicks after 120 minutes during an afternoon match in 90 degree heat and high humidity. Union go a man down in the 40th minute and then score early in the second half. They would give up the tying goal in the last minute of stoppage time to send it to extra time. What a gutsy game. The Union had lost four starters, one to suspension (CJ Sapong, their leading scorer) and two to injury, earlier. The starting goalkeeper for the last number of weeks was cup tied to another team (he is on loan from that team) and one of the back-ups is with the Jamaican national team at the Gold Cup. John McCarthy is a Philly kid who put in possibly the best game of his life in goal.On to the Semifinals!
