Philadelphia Union score four in preseason win

The Philadelphia Union played their third and final preseason match in Spain on Thursday morning, scoring four times in a lopsided win over Budućnost Podgorica in a 120-minute match.

Milan Iloski connected with Olwethu Makhanya on a corner kick for the center back’s second goal of the preseason to open the scoring. Bruno Damiani made it 2-0 in the 54th minute with a goal off a cross in the box by Frankie Westfield. Iloski made it 3-0 after the hour mark and Ben Bender added the fourth goal off an assist from Alejandro Bedoya.

With the win, the Union completed their three-game set of friendlies at Marbella Football Center with a win, a loss and a draw.

Head coach Bradley Carnell used two lineups in the match, replacing a majority of the starting XI by the 75th minute. A total of 22 players were used in the match, including a player listed as a trialist that was most likely Giovanny Sequera.

George Marks, CJ Olney, Eddy Davis III, Kaiden Moore and Markus Anderson were the only players on the active first team roster not to feature in the match. Moore, who is on loan from Atlanta United, and Anderson did not feature in any of the three friendlies in Spain.

Lineup:
Andre Blake (Andrew Rick 75′); Nathan Harriel (Trialist 75′), Japhet Sery Larsen (Finn Sundstrom 75′), Olwethu Makhanya (Olivier Mbaizo 75′), Frankie Westfield (Ben Bender 75′); Danley Jean Jacques (Jesus Bueno 62′), Jovan Lukic (Alejandro Bedoya 75′), Milan Iloski (Jeremy Rafanello 75′), Indiana Vassilev (Cavan Sullivan 72′); Bruno Damiani (Sal Olivas 75′), Ezekiel Alladoh (Stas Korzeniowski 75′).
