Rolfe scores twice late in United's 2-1 comeback over Revs

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Chris Rolfe scored two second-half goals within 11 minutes, and D.C. United came from behind to beat the New England Revolution 2-1 on Sunday.

Rolfe smashed a volley into the top of the net for the tying goal in the 70th minute. Fabian Espindola's service from the right flank floated just over the leaping defender Teal Bunbury's head to find Rolfe's right foot.

United coach Ben Olsen praised Espindola's effort as a provider.

''We obviously like when he's scoring goals,'' Olsen said. ''But the times he's able to get in and around the box, and in particular on the end line, it's pretty impressive.
