Ten Best: Metro vs DC Scum (update)
April 25, 2011
It's been a while since we looked at the Ten Best Metro victories over DC Scum... An update is sorely needed.
10) August 25, 2002: MetroStars 1, DC United 0
9) May 1, 2010: DC United 0, New York 2 It took Metro 14 years to win in DC by a shutout, and they do so in an easy fashion, leaving RFK after goals by Salou Ibrahim and Juan Pablo Angel, the second on a header off a Joel Lindpere free kick.
8) October 8, 2005: DC United 1, MetroStars 2
7) August 10, 2008: New York 4, DC United 1 The Scum score early, but Angel ties it off a direct free kick. Mike Magee gives Metro the lead, and then Angel strips a Scum defender to extend the advantage. Sinisa Ubiparipovic's first professional goal completes the laugher.
6) April 22, 2000: DC United 2, MetroStars 3 (OT)
5) October 1, 2003: MetroStars 3, DC United 2
4) April 21, 2011: DC United 0, New York 4 Metro rides into RFK and destroys the Scum, behind two goals by Thierry Henry, and one each from Lindpere and Juan Agudelo, the latter a juggling wonder. Jan Gunnar Solli records three primary assists (the league would later take one away, but we know better) and Metro gets its biggest road win in 15 years.
3) July 5, 2003: DC United 2, MetroStars 3 (OT)
2) September 24, 1996: MetroStars 2, DC United 2 (6:5 SO)
1) May 5, 2001: MetroStars 3, DC United 2
