For the past few years Philadelphia Union Head Coach Jim Curtin has been repeatedly that Subaru Park needs to be a fortress. Each year the home record improved and excitement grew and grew and reached a crescendo in 2020. This season while odd and without fans for most of the season was a record-breaking one as the Union became the first team in Major League Soccer to go undefeated at home.
No losses. No draws. Every single time the Boys in Blue took to the pitch they walked away with three points.
Winning the 2020 Supporters’ Shield at home was made even more special because the squad got to socially-distance thank the fans for their support. You saw not only the club’s fifth clean sheet at home but it locked in that the postseason will run through Subaru Park.
24 times the new videoboard as screamed DOOP from 10 different players in 2020 and there are hopes that there will be even more to come as the race for the MLS Cup begins.
The Union kick off the 2020 Audi MLS Cup Playoffs on Tuesday, November 24th. Kick off from Subaru Park is set for 8 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on ESPN.
