32nd minute:
D.C. United scores on a corner by Boswell
Leads the Premiership champs 1-0...
How long will it last?
35th minute:
Duff rockets a volley home for the Blues
Tie ball game...
Not very...
It sounds/looks like its a very even matched game...Looks like it'll be a fight to the end...
Gotta give credit to DC's defense...
56th minute:
Crespo rolls away a through-ball to put the English visitors ahead for the first time in the match...
Can D.C. United equalize?
Final score from FedEx Field:
Chelsea 2-D.C. United 1
should have been 2-1 DC, i'm pretty sure Crespo was off sides... and DC had a chance in the box earlier that should have most deffinately gone in...very good game though...i wish freddy adu was more mature with his shots though.
it was a very good game and both teams had plenty of opportunities to score, but the shots for DC would just not fall. Adu could have been better but you cant blame it all on him. Many United players had chances and could not capitalize. But the same could be said for Chelsea.
United put up a great fight, especially in the first half.
Crespo was on side, shame United gave the ball away at midfield and allowed that counter-attack.
Unbelievable that Chelsea could sub all 11 starters and still be that strong, with all those stars on the field. Money talks!
Still, this might be an indication of how american soccer might be improving.
American soccer, and the MLS are starting to improve greatly!!!
it is time for america to jump on the global soccer scene and hold their own
i dont qiute think america is ready to take the global scene, but they are very close, maybe with a win over mexico, the world might start to recognize us.
