DC United 3-2 New England

DC United have closed the gap on New York Red Bulls at the top of the MLS Eastern Conference with a 3-2 win over New England Revolution.

Brandon McDonald headed the hosts into a 15th minute lead from Branko Boskovic's free-kick before Dejan Jakovic made it 2-0 in first-half injury time.

New England struck back moments after the restart through Saer Sene's left-footed shot into to the bottom left corner.

The comeback was complete when A.J. Soares headed the equaliser from Chris Tierney's corner after 50 minutes.

However, DC were not be denied and Maicon Santos struck the winner in the 61st minute after being fed in the box by Dwayne De Rosario.
