While Philadelphia Union were engaged in an Eastern Conference clash against Supporters's Shield leading FC Cincinnati, Saturday night was the club's Kick Childhood Cancer Night where the 2023 Fearless 43 were honored.
The night kicked off for the group with a special pregame tailgate at Union Yards where our superheroes met some of the biggest heroes in the Universe before heading inside to take in the match. Alina Gall kicked off the match as the drum striker that got the entire stadium ready to welcome the Boys in Blue to the pitch.
After taking in the first half, all 43 were invited onto the pitch for the crowd to show their support which was highlighted by a special River End tifo and bubbles.
Following the match each of the Fearless 43 exchanged bracelets and other items with a member of the Philadelphia Union along with autographs and memories they'll cherish forever.
Philadelphia Union started Fearless 43 in 2019 with the number coming tied to the number of children diagnosed daily with cancer. For the last five years the Union have partnered with Kisses for Kyle to work with 43 childhood cancer patients in the greater Philadelphia area on a special project.Â
