David Doud?ra and Teenage Hadebe score to help Cincinnati beat D.C. United 2-1
in rescheduled game
CINCINNATI (AP) --- David Doud?ra scored for the first time in MLS, and Teenage
Hadebe recorded his first goal with Cincinnati to help beat D.C. United 2-1 on
Wednesday night.
Cincinnati (10-11-9) moved into ninth place in the Eastern Conference standings
with hopes of clinching a spot in the playoffs for the fifth season in a row.
D.C. United (7-10-13), which has not qualified for the postseason since 2019,
sits in 13th.
Doud?ra opened the scoring in the 14th minute when a deflected ball fell to his
feet at the far post for a one-touch finish. Hadebe put Cincinnati ahead in the
55th on a slide at the back post to finish Evander's free kick.
United defender Kimito Nono tied it at 1-all in the 38th. Joao Peglow chipped a
pass over the defense that Nono settled with his right foot and calmly sent in
a shot with his left.
The game was originally scheduled for Sept. 5 before it was postponed due to
pitch conditions and player safety concerns created by heavy rains in the
Cincinnati area.
Up next
D.C. United hosts a rematch with Cincinnati on Saturday.
