Columbus Crew vs. Charlotte FC | Full Match Highlights | Top of the East Battle!

Transcript

00:00He's been rather quiet. He drops to the bench. The last two matches, Hazel Jackson has come on as sub.

00:05He's made a difference. He gets his reward.

00:06Space for Abana to run into or Zaha to cut in.

00:09And there's lots of talent, but can they create without their main catalyst, Pep BL?

00:13There's no ceiling to these sides' ambitions this year.

00:17It's the crew and the crown.

00:20It's a heavyweight clash on match day 11.

00:23Oh, Pep BL for them.

00:26Injured last week and immediately over the top, immediately in behind.

00:29Oh, and over the top from Adjumang with an absolutely glorious chance.

00:35Ball breaks to the right and it's going to be Rossi to cross. That's Ream's block.

00:40Farsi to hit it. And low to his left. It's Kalina.

00:44Adjumang's gone down off the ball and has stayed down for the moment.

00:49And the crew, well, they don't have to stop.

00:52So they keep coming and it's Rossi from Russell Rose Pass.

00:55Rossi gets the shot away.

00:57And it's Kalina with the save.

00:59Adjumang, meanwhile, further upfield. He's back up on his feet.

01:05Smooth fast for Rossi.

01:08Russell Rowe.

01:09It's coming through to Rossi.

01:11And it's saved by Kalina.

01:13It goes out for a corner.

01:15Full on the face.

01:16It's a solid save.

01:20It's a solid save. How much did Kalina know about it right into his head?

01:23I was just wondering whether there's a shout of handball as it's being flicked through.

01:27He's okay. The corner comes in and he comes out for it.

01:32And Zawacki was at the back post.

01:34It goes out for another corner.

01:36Really busy month.

01:38We have midweek action as well to come.

01:40And now here is Rossi and Kalina makes a save.

01:43And it's a solid shot.

01:44Shambou, his first goal in Major League Soccer.

01:51And that wonderful left foot works to perfect effect in front of the Nordecca.

01:56Columbus have the lead after Kalina could not hold the shot.

02:02You can see as Kalina making a mistake first.

02:04Trying to play out.

02:06And they get punished with it.

02:07Look at all the Columbus group players getting around.

02:10Soon as they win it, they pounce.

02:13Shambou, he's on the ball.

02:15He lays it off and then he's the one falling off.

02:17As Rossi has a solid strike.

02:19But it's one that Kalina, top goalkeeper in the league last year, he should be handling.

02:23Now there's a little bit of slick on the surface which throws him off, but still.

02:28Now they've got some work to do here because this is Rossi standing over it.

02:31And then instead it's Shambou left footed.

02:33And at the second time of asking, on the bounce goes through to Kalina.

02:40This works.

02:42Kick out, advantage played.

02:44Aziel Jackson through the road.

02:46A save Kalina.

02:47Russell Road just comes from the blind side.

02:50And as soon as that happens, they win it back.

02:52Aziel Jackson, he's off.

02:54But it could save this is.

02:56There's a foul there.

03:01Oh, again with the left foot.

03:02The all-scorer to take it.

03:05Russell Road was in there.

03:07That's Chiburko.

03:09They're appealing for it.

03:09Oh, they've got it.

03:11It's a penalty kick.

03:13Alan Chapman signaled it immediately.

03:15And Columbus will have a chance to double their advantage from the spot.

03:19Watch the right arm of Abadaz.

03:22It's up in the air.

03:23And he tries to get round to get on the ball.

03:26And it's right there on his right arm outstretched.

03:29It's the right decision for now.

03:30Seven minutes to go to half time.

03:34Columbus with their noses in front.

03:36Now have the chance to take a commanding lead.

03:39It's Rossi.

03:40It's on.

03:40And it's 2-0 to the crew.

03:53Silly.

03:55And then Rossi, he's stepping up.

03:57One down on the bench, don't forget, because Gazdak withdrew.

04:00Jason Rosserow came on.

04:01Did he come again?

04:02It's Shambo once more.

04:04It's over the top from him.

04:05Well, Kalina had treatment, of course.

04:07We had the penalty kick as well.

04:12Zahar.

04:13Someone who can change a game in a second.

04:15Oh, Bronco brought down surely.

04:17It's a penalty.

04:19Chibarco came across.

04:21And Charlotte, in stoppage time, at the end of the first half,

04:25are going to have a chance to get on the board.

04:29Wolfrey Zahar has the chance to make a statement on the field.

04:34He scores.

04:35And Charlotte pulled the deficit back to 2-1 in added time at the end of the first half.

04:41His second successful penalty kick of the season.

04:44Indeed, he's now up to three for the campaign.

04:49Shorty still doesn't have an MLS penalty save in his career.

04:53From when he puts his hand up, he knows himself.

04:55And Zaha, similar style.

04:58Gazeg, obviously, is so good from the spotting for Philadelphia Union.

05:03Farsi looking for Rossi.

05:06Green's block has jumped straight back to him.

05:08And that's ACL Jackson.

05:10Into the corner of the net.

05:12And restoring a two-goal advantage.

05:14Super finish.

05:153-1.

05:163-1.

05:18The start to the starting 11.

05:33As Riem, he gets the first intervention, but as it pops kindly to Farsi.

05:37Right into now, Riem outside of Zaha.

05:41What magic can he produce from this kind of area?

05:44Farsi stands tall against him.

05:46Riem to deliver the cross.

05:47It's close to Schulte.

05:49Oh, he's parried it, though.

05:50And Abadda's put it in.

05:52It's an absolute gift.

05:53And Charlotte are back in it.

06:00Abadda says, thanks very much.

06:02I'll slot that in the corner.

06:04After Schulte parried it straight into his path.

06:07It's game on again.

06:08The start of this play to go 1v1 with Max Arfsten.

06:11Arfsten did well on that occasion.

06:13And this for Schulte.

06:14He's flapping at it.

06:15Should be doing...

06:16Rossi, they're driving through the middle now.

06:19Columbus, a fourth new infield would be very difficult for Charlotte to come back from.

06:25Russell Rowe.

06:26He's trying to find the angle.

06:28And Kaleida makes the save.

06:29Brought to you by T-Mobile.

06:32And there it is, the outstretched last year.

06:35And one defeat in their first 10 MLS games for the fourth time in their existence.

06:40And they've done it in consecutive years for the first time in that 30 years as well.

06:45And here they come with Arfsten.

06:47And he crosses in.

06:47It's Russell Rowe ready to finish it.

06:50It's Russell Rowe ready to finish it.

06:50And it does.

07:01Big switch out to Arfsten.

07:03But then Arfsten picking up his head.

07:05Touch the settle right foot is weaker foot.

07:07And then put one other piece beside them.

07:09Whether it's Hazel Jackson.

07:11Fighting it out with Jason Russell Rowe.

07:13What a team.

07:14And that is it.

07:17Columbus get the win.

07:20They were pushed hard.

07:21But ultimately, too good on the night.
