D.C. United looked like they had more than one eye on Tuesday's CONCACAF Champions League match today, losing 4-1 to the Montreal Impact in their final preseason game. A second-choice United lineup was undone by three Impact goals in the first half hour, with Dominic Oduro scoring twice. The Black-and-Red replied through Alvaro Saborio and improved after halftime, but ultimately couldn't claw their way back into the game.
Ben Olsen started the match with only one potential starter (Markus Halsti) for the trip to Mexico, and he was in less familiar role than normal to boot.
