With Bill Hamid away at the Gold Cup with the National Team, United's net has most recently been filled by Joe Willis. The St. Louis native has pocketed 360 minutes thus far in the 2013 campaign, but tonight, Andrew Dykstra was able to enter the match for the majority of the second half. Dykstra made three all-important saves to keep the Black-and-Red up.
