“Of course it’s a relief to score my first goal - it’s something that I’ve been working really hard on every day, and it was really nice to see it finally going in,” Uhre said after his tally helped the Union earn a 1-1 tie at Nashville SC.
And he was again on Sunday after scoring his first Union goal, freeing himself of the burden of a six-game drought (he’s also missed three games) to start his time in Philadelphia. Mikael Uhre doesn’t wear his emotions on his sleeve in the same way that many popular Philly sports stars do, or in the way that teammates like Alejandro Bedoya and José Andrés Martínez do.īut he’s always honest, in good times and bad.
