D.C. United and Charlotte FC haven’t met since February’s season opener, but tonight that scoreline was flipped in the Queen City, with Charlotte FC winning 3-0.
Charlotte made moves early in the match, taking advantage of space in D.C.’s defensive half. In the 11’, Yordy Reyna was as much of a problem for the Black-and-Red as we foresaw, finding his way easily through his previous team’s defense. He had a good look on goal, firing off a shot on his first touch. Rafael Romo was quicker, blocking the shot with his right foot, but D.C. was certainly put on notice.
