Needing a victory to right the course, United outplayed Vancouver for 90 minutes, with Fabian Espindola and Alvaro Saborio both supplying two goals
Five weeks into the 2016 season, D.C. United was one of two winless teams in MLS. Three draws had provided several bright moments for the Black-and-Red, but they were sandwiched around two heavy losses. And with a stretch of five of six games at home, United were pressing for a win to right the course of the season.
On Saturday, they got that and more, as United cruised to a 4-0 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps, powered by two goals each by Fabian Espindola and Alvaro Saborio.
