This thread provides an excellent opportunity for me to fill your heads with more useless trivia.

1) When did Freddy Adu draw his first red card as a pro?
2) When did the Boy Wonder score his first pro goal?

Answer: They happened in the same game. March 20, 2004 against our very own Charleston Battery. The game was during the first Carolina Challenge Cup and Freddy's 1st game as a pro for DCU.

And now, some documentation. First, the foul very cheeky, IMHO. (And BTW, is it just me or does the ref look like Claudio Reyna?)

And now the goal, scored in front of the Battery's Ted Chronopolous. Defense wasn't good but the kid finished it off.
