Emilio has much to prove in return to United
Luciano Emilio has ranked as D.C. United’s leading scorer for every one of his three seasons with the club, scoring 41 goals in 85 matches and winning the MLS MVP award in 2007.
Off the field, the Brazilian went the extra mile to embrace his adopted surroundings, learning English (practiced by serenading his teammates in the D.C. locker room) and making the Washington region a long-term home for him and his family.
Getting to know Danny Allsopp - Part 1
In part one of this two-part feature, dcunited.com's Tony Limarzi talks to D.C. United Forward, Danny Allsopp about his adjustment to Major League Soccer, his tireless work rate and his thoughts on the teams struggles and progress. Part 2 will look at Danny's life off the field.
Santino's staph scare
D.C. United has only played eight matches of the MLS regular season, but they have already had to deal with a season’s worth of injuries. The injuries are not an excuse for the record, but they surely haven’t helped. The team has suffered a variety of injuries as you learned last week on dcunited.com. More recently, Santino Quaranta suffered another medical setback as he contracted a staph infection. Santino’s infection was not very widely publicized, even though it was a week-long ordeal from the time he first noticed a problem until the point when it was all taken care of.

VIDEO: Poor But Sexy in concert
On Saturday, May 15, D.C. United welcomed Poor But Sexy to RFK Stadium's Lot 8 as part of the 'It Takes More' Concert Series. dcunited.com was there to capture the energy and excitement of the performance and the great atmosphere from fans tailgating before the match. Be sure to check out the It Takes More Concert Series at RFK prior to all of D.C. United's league matches this season.
Unfortunately for DC, it's business as usual
D.C. coach Curt Onalfo said a questionable no-call led to Colorado's goal.
The Colorado Rapids broke a decade-long habit of failure at
RFK Stadium with Saturday night’s 1-0 win over D.C. United, but the result was
business as usual—in all the worst ways—for the home side.
The letdowns, late goals and losses keep stacking up for
United, and while the disappointment of the season’s seventh setback is acute
enough in its own right, the continuation of a recurring pattern makes this
latest defeat all the more maddening for Curt Onalfo and his men.
Continúa la frustración del D.C. United
WASHINGTON, D.C.- Los jugadores del D.C. United no pudieron ocultar la frustración que los embarga en este primer cuarto de la temporada después de que el Colorado Rapids les propinara su séptima derrota de la temporada con un gol de Mehdi Ballouchi al minuto 67’ que terminó con una racha de 11 años del club visitante sin poder ganar en el RFK.
Character, desire help improve Rapids on the road
The Colorado Rapids went to RFK Stadium on Saturday night and edged D.C. United, 1-0, erasing an 11-year winless streak in the Nation's Capital.
The difference this year is that there was a certain amount of expectation they would do just that—and not because D.C. is hardly at the top of their game.
