Daily News | Union Takeaways: Jim Curtin slams referee mishap that sparked collapse in Montreal
on Saturday night at Olympic Stadium.Mikael Uhre. It couldn’t be anyone else, since he scored his first two goals of the season and they were both great finishes. But that wasn’t the story of this game, and let’s not take too long to get to it.Key defensive statThe number of shots Montreal took after Julián Carranza’s red card. Six of them came after Damion Lowe subbed in for Alejandro Bedoya in the 87th minute and the Union switched their formation to a 3-5-1.
I know everybody tries to do the best they can, and I understand when there’s mistakes. I know they try to get it right. But just to the eyeballs, that can’t look good for anyone. I guess it was exciting for the fans, for sure, but it’s not professional.”“On the bench, they have some gadgets that they can show the replay. I went there and the coach said, ‘You know, it’s a goal — there was somebody on the [end] line.’ So I went back to the ref to try to complain.
I asked him to just communicate with the VAR and also the ref, because there was somebody that he hadn’t been picked up by the camera, so can you check again? The referee was [saying], good point, and he went back to check, and he made the right decision.”Biggest result elsewhereLed by Argentine World Cup winning-midfielder Thiago Almada and new big-money striker Girorgos Giakoumakis, Atlanta delivered an explosive win to improve to 3-0-1 on the season.
But the Union will be especially shorthanded, with eight players expected to be gone with national teams: Damion Lowe , Brandan Craig , Olivier Mbaizo , José Andrés Martínez , Richard Odada , Jack McGlynn , Dániel Gazdag , and Quinn Sullivan Add in Andre Blake’s injury absence and Julián Carranza’s red card, and the Union might not be able to have a full bench.
