It's a weird time for D.C. United to be playing FC Dallas. MLS is sort of closed for the weekend, with just three games going on during the current window for international matches. United is feeling it, as Steve Birnbaum will be with the USMNT for their games against Guatemala. Alvaro Saborio will be with Costa Rica as well, likely opening a spot on the bench for someone like Miguel Aguilar.
For Dallas, the call-ups have left them in a very slightly larger bind:
Acosta, Zimmerman, Hernandez, Gonzalez, Akindele, Harris, and Figueroa all out for DC.
