D.C. United trounced, 5-2, FC Cincinnati clinches a playoff spot

D.C. United needed to sign off this season with a display of confidence. Unfortunately, today’s 2-5 loss to Cincinnati wasn’t the strong finish the Black-and-Red was looking for.

FC Cincinnati came out of the gate swinging today, putting up a strong attack and scoring two goals within the first ten minutes of play to set D.C. United back on its heels.

D.C. United alum and supporter favorite, Luciano “Lucho” Acosta, found the back of the net first for Cincinnati, floating the ball past David Ochoa in the 6’. Brandon Vázquez provided the assist with a headed pass to Lucho.
