After such a long wait, it wouldn’t be surprising to hear that Philadelphia Union fans have forgotten how to feel when their team wins a match. Before Saturday’s 3-0 home romp over the Red Bulls, Philadelphia hadn’t won an MLS game since Aug. 27, 2016.
Whatever spoils there are from beating a regional rival at home belong almost entirely to C.J. Sapong. The striker is now tied for the league…

Not everyone thrives playing second fiddle. The egos involved when the paychecks are big and the spotlight is bright can upend team dynamics even in what seems to be a good situation.

SV Darmstadt coach Torsten Frings has criticised want-away midfielder Florian Jungwirth, 28, who is reportedly seeking a transfer to Major League Soccer side San Jose Earthquake.
