After besting Miami on penalties Crew 2 move on to face a tough Chicago according to Sports Cafe.

The win will go down as a draw and a shootout win. The league places emphasis on winning games in regulation. This, they only award points as if shootout games were draws.

These developmental teams will faceoff and see just who is better at soccer. So far the standings would say it is not the Crew 2. What new evidence will they display?
