Video footage from DC United Vs Colorado

Just updated Youtube with some videos from the Colorado Rapids beating this past Saturday, feel free to enjoy Joe Vide almost detach the net from the frame, Santino Quaranta launch a rocket from the the top of the box and Quavas Kirk sweeping up the left overs in front of the goal. And finally of course complete highlights of the game. And of course if you want to relive some old games find highlights and goals from the past on my Youtube channel.

Fred injured

Fred pulled his hamstring against New England last week and will be out at least 3 weeks. And yes I know this is old news, still needs to be posted!

A New Goalie, A ShutOut, A Win

Yes that pretty much sums it up, DC United headed up to Chicago with a newly signed Goalkeeper, Louis Crayton from Liberia. I think they finalized his contract Thursday or Friday and he was the starter on Saturday, that pretty much sums up the confidence for Zach Wells, I hope I do not have to see Wells guard the net for DC United in a long time.

I could not watch the game, damn direct kick, so I have not much to say about our performance, but since both Peralta and Gallardo was not playing and we still manage to beat Chicago on the road I hope we got something going. Of course having Fred scoring a goal again was long overdue.

I hope we can keep it up against New England tonight and give them a spank they will have a hard time to forget.

Fred Scores on a corber Kick!

New Goalie!?

DC United has reach an agreement with Goal Keeper Louis Crayton, he still needs to pass his physical and have his International Transfer Certificate processed before DC United can start him. As long as all limbs are attached this should not be a problem. He has been playing for FC Basel the Swiss champs for the past 3 years as the backup goalie. He has 36 caps to his name.
