The Columbus Crew tamed the Purple Monster on Wednesday night, adding yet another impressive chapter to the quiet but compelling claim that the humble side from Ohio is American soccer’s best team.
“Honestly, flying under the radar hasn’t been a bad thing. Whether people want to respect us or not, we’re back at the top,” veteran midfielder Brian Carroll told FanHouse. “Obviously playing in this market is a little different from a marketing and pressure standpoint, but the fans here are extremely passionate. They want the best from us, and we’re trying to work hard to give that to them.”
For the past year and a half they have, and it’s time that supporters and media in the rest of the country take notice.
