D.C. United, forced into an awkward schedule while awaiting the opening of Audi Field, has had an unusual couple of days. While Wayne Rooney was announced as United’s newest designated player, and then did a media tour around the city, the rest of the team was traversing the country, playing games against the New England Revolution and LA Galaxy. Which ended up in United drawing attention wherever they went, a bit unusual for a team that’s currently bottom of the MLS table.
But Wednesday’s 2-2 tie against the Galaxy brought an end to United’s tour, which saw them travel for 12 of their first 14 games this season.
