D.C. United, even after heavily rotating, looked so promising for 45 minutes against the New England Revolution, but had to rue some forgettable finishing and some individual errors in what became a 3-2 loss. It was good, until it wasn’t. United showed the league leaders what they were made of, but unfortunately also got to see what the Revolution are made of these days, and it turns out Bruce Arena’s got some ballers.
It’s not a lot of fun to talk about a second straight loss, but there are some interesting aspects to this one.
