Philadelphia Union secured a dramatic 3‑2 victory over Atlanta United at Subaru Park, turning a deficit into a late three‑goal surge that left the home crowd roaring.
Atlanta United managed only two shots on target, both of which found the net, while Union goalkeeper Andre Blake delivered a solid performance rated at 5.
A Record‑Breaking Night
Milan Iloski’s back‑heel flick produced a club‑record goal in his sixth straight appearance and pushed his season tally to ten goals, while Kai Wagner’s precise passing set up both the equalizer and the winner, earning him a 9 rating.
Ezekiel Alladoh, making his first senior appearance, capped the comeback with the decisive strike, marking his first goal for the club and highlighting his rapid development.
Midfielder Nathan Harriel was booked for a tactical foul but still led the team in passing accuracy, completing 42 of 43 attempts, while Frankie Westfield’s distribution was sharp despite missing a stoppage‑time chance.
Neil Pierre’s defensive work and aerial duels earned him an 8 rating, reinforcing his growing influence at the back, whereas Bruno Damiani’s rating of 3 suggests a positional adjustment may be needed as Alladoh continues to rise.
Substitutes Jesús Bueno and Quinn Sullivan also added depth, contributing to the team’s overall cohesion as the Union secured three consecutive MLS wins.
The Union now turn their attention to the Leagues Cup, with a showdown against Cruz Azul scheduled for August 6 at 8 p.m. at Subaru Park, a match that promises to test their newfound momentum.
