D.C. (9-10-3, 30 points) earned its first win against Philadelphia since April 1, 2017, going 0-9-1 in their previous 10 meetings. D.C. United rallied to end a three-game losing streak with a 3-1 win against the visiting Philadelphia Union on Saturday. In the sixth minute, Julian Gressel set up Edison Flores for a strike that rolled left of the net. United thought they had the opening tally in the 13th minute on a Gressel feed to Antonio Alfaro but Gressel was ruled offside. United was awarded the kick after Union defender Alvas Powell’s sliding tackle in the box took down Reyna.
