Will Ben Olsen give some players a rest tonight?

After pulling out an impossible late winner against Orlando City SC, D.C. United are back in it again today, facing the Portland Timbers in a mid-week home game. The game against the New England Revolution this Sunday is a game the team has to win over a team they’ll need to eek out to make the playoffs, so I think that Ben Olsen will give some starters a rest today.

I think Ben Olsen is going to rotate some players given that this game is both mid-week and against a Western Conference opponent, and that starts with the goalkeeper: Bill Hamid will get the start in goal, and probably would have regardless of David Ousted’s own goal.
