Tai Baribo named to MLS Team of the Matchday bench
After delivering score a brace on Wednesday night, Philadelphia Union forward Tai Baribo has earned a spot on the MLS Team of the Matchday bench the league announced on Thursday afternoon.
Making his second official start for the club, Baribo's performance capped off a resilent display from the Boys in Blue as they battled back from three deficits in the contest against FC Cincinnati. Baribo's performance was a memorable one for the Israeli forward as he scored his first MLS goal in the 43rd minute to give the Union momentum going into the halftime break. Baribo collected his second goal of the night in the first minute of stoppage time to cap off an amazing play from Kai Wagner and Jeremy Rafanello.
Philadelphia Union returns to Subaru Park this weekend as they host Charlotte FC for Pride Night presented by Subaru. Kick off is set for 7:30PM ET with very limited tickets available by clicking here.
