The Union's debut

The zealots who waited for years for pro soccer to come to the Philadelphia region saw their dreams realized last night.


Unfortunately, they’ll have to wait a bit longer to celebrate their team’s first goal.


The Union, the newest franchise in Major League Soccer, who will call Chester their home base, kicked off the MLS season in Seattle last night.


They came within a whisker of bolting to a 1-0 lead. That’s as close as they got. They fell to the Sounders, 2-0.


That did not stop the local soccer maniacs from cheering on their team.
