Jonathan Lewis came off the bench with just five minutes to go in a tie game. The speedy winger this time used good positioning and took advantage of a fortunate bounce to knock in the game-winner in the second minute of stoppage time.

Diego Rubio entered the box on a nice touch-pass give-and-go from Kellyn Acosta. D.C. United’s Russell Canouse was right on the play and tried to clear.
