Daily News | Shorthanded Union prepare for grueling week of travel and competition
Jim Curtin has had the next week of the Union’s schedule circled on his calendar for some time.
The team’s eight-game slate in May might have been the busiest portion of its season. But the upcoming week — with the combination of cross-country travel, tough competition, and a shorthanded roster — will perhaps be the most difficult. Up first is a trip Saturday night to Carson, Calif., for the Union’s first game against the Los Angeles Galaxy since 2019. On Wednesday, the Union will travel to Nashville, currently four points ahead of Curtin’s team in the Eastern Conference standings, albeit with one more game played.

The Galaxy sit in 13th place out of 14 teams in the Western Conference but are unbeaten in their last six league games. Most recently, they defeated in-city rival and defending MLS Cup champion Los Angeles FC, 2-1, before“[It was] a performance that wasn’t us,” Curtin said. “[We] talked a lot in the film [Thursday] about when we’re at our best, all 10 field players are attacking, all 10 field players are defending.
“That’s a good reminder that if you’re not on top of your game on the road, you can get punished. And we look forward now to having a better team performance against the L.A. Galaxy, a team that just had a very hard-fought, emotional win against LAFC.”
