Rewind: Crew vs. Stoke City 2012

The Crew will host FA Cup champion Wigan Athletic on Saturday in its annual international friendly at Crew Stadium. Here's a look back at the Black & Gold's 2-1 victory over Stoke City last season to get you ready for this weekend's match.


JULY 24: Crew 2 - Stoke 1

Early on, it seemed the Potters were clearly the top side as Jonathan Walters headed Ryan Shotton's cross into the net before Andy Gruenebaum could react in the opening minutes. However, the Black & Gold showed their fight in the second half as Homegrown striker Aaron Horton equalized in the 71st minute, finishing off Emilio Rentería's sliding endline cross. The Crew found the winner 16 minutes later as Horton's fellow Homegrown Ben Speas blasted a victory strike from the top of the box to edge the Premier League side 2-1.
