Colin's Keys to capitalizing in Columbus

WFC24-Digital-KeysToTheMatch-16x9_(1)

Tune in this Saturday to myself and Asa Rehman on 101.1 HD3 and CKNW.com, starting with our pre-match show and ending with our post-match show. Saturday's match kicks off at 4:30 p.m. PT.

Here are the keys for the 'Caps to extend their 11-match MLS unbeaten run in Columbus.

Well-timed passes

Columbus play a high back line, and very square at times.

A well-timed run with a quality pass will cause them problems.

Defensive shape

Keeping our defensive shape and discipline when we press will bring us success.

Columbus tend to overplay in their defensive third.

Welcome back

It was an incredible result against Seattle last weekend, considering the circumstances.

Now Cubas, Vite, Johnson, and Bovalina return from international duty.

That adds more depth to our depleted squad from last week.
