MLS’ Union to open on road March 25

The expansion Philadelpha Union will makes its Major League Soccer debut against the Seattle Sounders at Qwest Field on Thursday, March 25, according to a league source.

That game will be the first played in the entire league next season.

The Union's home opener is against DC United on April 10 at Lincoln Financial Field, because of the ongoing construction at the Union's eventual home stadium in Chester.

The schedule of home openers for each team will be released later today with the full season schedule set to be released tomorrow.
