Episode Description from the Publisher

The Philadelphia Union were held to zero goals once again by D.C. United, as United took four points off the Union during the regular season. Despite the draw, the Union were able to record their first clean sheet of the season and Andre Blake's 90th career clean sheet. Todd discusses his thoughts from the game, including: Ezekiel Alladoh and Bruno Damiani's performance, Jesús Bueno continuing to make a case as a locked-in starter, and finding the positives in a game that felt like a "must-win." Finally, Blunder of the Week goes to Gianluigi Donnarumma for his huge blunder against Arsenal that allowed Arsenal to equalize 1-1 against Manchester City. Philadelphia Union v D.C.
