The Columbus Crew is a professional soccer team founded in 1994. At the same time, the Crew was introduced as one of the first ten Major League Soccer clubs. The country’s first major-league stadium specifically for soccer was built soon after. On May 15, 1999, the Crew played its first game at the Columbus Crew Stadium and defeated New England with a 2-0 win. To date, the Crew has won five major trophies in its history: the MLS Cup in 2008, the 2004, 2008, and 2009 Supporters’ Shields, and the 2002 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.
