Another tightly contested, scrappy match for the Black-and-Red tonight, as D.C. topped the visiting Rochester Rhinos 2-1 on a 86th minute goal from Boyzzz Khumalo. Jaime Moreno put United on top in the 41st minute - his 12th career goal in Open Cup play - before Rochester's Tai Atieno scored on a broken play in the box in the 68th.
The game this evening included a broken leg for Rochester's Darren Kenton and a broken wrist for Khumalo. Hopefully, both will be quick to recover.
