I thought it was a even match.   What makes you say Houston were so much better? Passing? Possession? Scoring chances?

I thought DC was better in the early goings, and was able to have a great strike off a FK. Not many other very good scoring chances outside of that. There were some borderline fouls that would have resulted in penalities that Houston didn't get. That + the luck of easy goals hittting the post. 

Don't forget to bantz.


DC had a golden chance not long before the equalizer. As for arguing for penalities I didn't see any controversy afterward on a call.  Houston have not been great finishers in 2015, big reason why Cubo is going to be huge for them come Summer.

Crazy weekend, including 8 goals in Houston!

DC continues to roll with massive road win against Vancouver, and now has Columbus coming to RFK Saturday.

Of course, the match of the week is tonight in Montreal as 61K will watch the second leg of the Champion's League in the Olympic Stadium.



You see the red card given in the Houston/SKC game? We got Stott'd.

It was certainly entertaining though.

Montreal fought valiantly, but ultimate a few minutes saw America pour on the goals and Impact lose 2-4 (3-5) as MLS sides once again struggle when the pressure is on.

Montreal had great support, that's about it.



DC United and New England continue to roll and expansion sides are struggling now.  Should be another fun weekend starting tonight.



Big matches saw Toronto FC open expanded stadium of 30K...to a loss 1-2, oh Toronto.

Also, New York took down New York City in first ever match against one another 2-1.

Other notes are New England DC United draws keep them level at 18 points.



Toronto disappointing or not, I'll take all 3 points. Just need to stay with the pack until Cubo arrives.

DC United 2-1 Orlando

This marks the first time in eight long years DC United have been at the top of the league! Win Sunday in Philadelphia will keep us there.
