D.C. United is back in action this afternoon, taking on the Montreal Impact in first game of the Tampa Bay Rowdies’ Suncoast Invitational. This is the first of two matches United will play at Al Lang Stadium, the Rowdies home, with the middle game being played at the Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex nearby.
As I said in the first version of our minutes tracker, this is not a battle for spots on the roster as it so often has been in years past. However, this game and the two following is a chance for a number of players to lay claim to a starting role.
