With preseason winding down, a reserve-heavy D.C. United made easy work of Saint Louis FC of the USL, rolling to a 3-0 victory at the Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex in Clearwater, FL. Alhaji Kamara and Sebastien Le Toux scored while United’s probable second team was on the field in the first hour, before Patrick Nyarko scored a late goal to cap things off. Perhaps most importantly for United, though, was Bill Hamid’s return to action. The USMNT hopeful got 45 minutes in his first appearance following offseason knee surgery.
Ben Olsen, likely preparing to use his starters for this weekend’s preseason finale against the Philadelphia Union, sent out a largely second-choice starting lineup.
