From nearly the club ending a couple of years ago to winning again this time in front of a packed crowd. Columbus Crew is a story of triumph over any adversity. Lessons to be learned from a successfully managed team and organization!!!

Columbus is one of the original members of the MLS. A time before guys like Messi would ever consider playing in the league. The league has come a long way, and the Crew have been there from day one. Even surviving an owner trying to move them to Austin Texas. Congrats Crew fans!!!

[@celebrim1]

If Orlando hadn't changed their identity too much and over respected the Crew and hadn't tried to be the team that they aren't facing us in the playoffs, then I full think Orlando would have hoisted the trophy this year. Fundamentally, Orlando lost that game solely because they'd been coached to try to disrupt our game by playing physical, and that was not only unnecessary it disrupted their play and eventually earned them a well-earned red. Orlando was good enough to beat us without the shenanigans, as they proved both regular season and when they went back to their game when a man down. See you next year in the playoffs.

[@metawave789]

[@Eradicus]

Everton fan here, from Liverpool. I never took American sport loyalty seriously because you can move franchises between cities, what is that?! Then I saw a documentary about how you guys saved the club. You stood up to soulless corporate interests and WON. That made American "soccer" history but it also made American sports history full stop. This just doesn't happen in American sports but you MADE it happen. Being from Liverpool I always felt like Ohio would be a state I'd like to visit, whose people I would understand, good people, salt of the earth people, and I always remembered you for having your 3 biggest cities being with C; Cleveland, Cincinnati and of course Columbus. And the Crew had fallen on hard times - just like Everton. And you are a FOUNDER member of the MLS just like Everton are founder members of both the football league (1887) and the premier league (1991). They wanted to take that from you but they DIDN'T. You fought for your club against all odds, againat all American sporting convention, and won. I've followed you guys on and off ever since. So happy for you. Columbus Crew have a pedigree no-one in US soccer can match. Enjoy!
