CINCINNATI — D.C. United arrived at sold-out TQL Stadium on Saturday enjoying its finest stretch of soccer in some time and carrying the confidence of a team poised to knock off an MLS front-runner.
The good vibes did not last. And by conceding goals 14 minutes apart in the second half, United dropped a 2-1 decision to FC Cincinnati and watched its winning streak in league play end at three and its overall run stop at four.
Cincinnati (7-1-3) tallied twice before United’s Taxi Fountas struck in the 90th minute to stretch his scoring streak to three matches.
