The Last Word on D.C. United's demolition of the Vancouver Whitecaps: Just a little patience

VWFC was poor, it has to be said, but let's not dismiss the value of this game for the Black-and-Red

After a frustrating start to the season, D.C. United broke out over the weekend by steamrolling the Vancouver Whitecaps at RFK Stadium. The 4-0 win saw them score more goals over 90 minutes than they'd managed in their opening 5 MLS matches. Fabian Espindola and Alvaro Saborio both scored twice, and Luciano Acosta picked up his first 2 assists since joining the club. Even the weather - predicted to be a rainy, windy evening - turned out to be better than expected.
