CHESTER, Pa. (AP) -- Jack McInerney scored twice and the
Philadelphia Union beat Sporting Kansas City 4-0 Saturday night to
snap a six-game winless skid.
Lionard Pajoy converted a penalty kick in the 81st minute after
Antoine Hoppenot was fouled in the box and Hoppenot also had a goal
in the 87th minute for the Union (3-8-2). Philadelphia, 0-5-1 in
its previous six, won for the first time since beating Chivas USA
1-0 on April 21.
Philadelphia entered the game having scored a league-low eight
goals. However, McInerney got the Union on the board early with a
goal in the second minute. He added his second in the 43rd minute.
Kansas City (9-4-2) snapped its four-game unbeaten streak.
