Match Recap

Columbus Crew had to dig out of a hole before turning this one into a statement. Charlotte struck first through Idan Toklomati Jorno in the 17th minute, and for a while it looked like business as usual against a side that had already beaten the Crew twice this season without conceding. Then Brais Méndez leveled things in the 28th, and Columbus took total control in the second half: Anass Zaroury put them ahead in the 63rd, and Taha Habroune made it 3-1 just two minutes later. The result does little to shift the Major League Soccer table on paper, Charlotte sit fifth with 46 points and Columbus thirteenth with 29, but it snaps a head-to-head curse and arrives in the middle of a rough patch the Crew needed to interrupt. Four goals, two different second-half finishers, and a losing streak against this exact opponent broken in twenty minutes. Watch how Zaroury and Habroune turned a one-goal deficit into a comfortable win in the span of two minutes.
