3rd Minute: Khano Smith hits one from a bad angle.. hits the side of the net

5th Minute: DC United's Brian Alvarez hits one.. tipped onto the post by Busch

7th Minute: DC United's Hanapiah hits a shot over the bar from just inside the 18.

11th Minute: Well, FUCK. Another injury to a defender, Henning can't contnue. I decide to put Zotincal on and hope for the best.

15th Minute: Busch goes up for the cross, gets undercut and thuds to the ground painfully.. he needs assistance from the trainer, while I curse at the ref asking why there wasn't a card issued.

21st Minute: A long range shot by DC's Van Sicklen is easily saved by Busch

27th Minute: Alvarez's scoop shot is well over the bar.. they are having the better of play at the moment.

29th Minute: Throw in by Ohbum deep into the box finds Casey, who nods it down and back to the oncoming Steve Ralston, who volleys it with his right foot.. TOP CORNER! GOAL REVS 1-0!

30th minute: DC tries to come right back, but Hagi Hanipah's header goes well wide, no trouble at all

40th Minute: DC's Wagenfuhr is booked for tripping Casey.

43rd Minute: Simms puts one just a bit too high for DC, skimming the bar as it went over.

1-0 Revs at Halftime. They make a double change at half, thug/legbreaker Dema Kovalenko comes on for Hanapiah, and Alvarez is off for Jaime Moreno. 24,055 in attendance at RFK

I'm encouraging them, a second score would be good, but let's win and make them beat us at our house to win.

47th minute: A Van Sicklen shot is well held by Busch

50th Minute: A free kick from Castro finds the head of Casey, but it's just wide.

51st Minute: Zotinca booked for a shirt-tug on Moreno.

54th Miinute: DC nearly punishes a defensive mistake by Julinho, but Lobodzinski's shot went high.

55th Minute: A cross by Khano Smith finds the head of Wolff, but Andrews parries it, and DC clear their lines.

56th Minute: Ohbum crosses for Smith, who heads it wide.

64th Minute: Lobodzinski breaks the offside trap and was racing through to get a through ball, but his first touch is poor and Busch is able to gather just before the onrushing attacker can get to it.

71st minute: Van Sicklen off, Lewis on for DC.

78th minute: They win a corner that comes to nothing. Biglieri on for the tiring Ralston

81st Minute: A cross nearly finds Khano Smith, but the defender nearly puts it into his own net trying to defend it.

85th Minute: Russell on for Faty

90th Minute: Zotinca with the corner kick, Medina with the header, but no real power on it, easy save by DC.

92nd Minute: Biglieri booked for a foul on Simms.

Final Score: 1-0 Revs. Means we did our jobs, but it's by no means over coming home for the 2nd leg.
