Bronx, NY -- The boys in blue slay the beast of the east, the first place DC United.
After being down 0-1 at half, McNamara, Villa and Poku all notched goals, with assists coming from Poku, Pirlo and McNamara, respectively.
To round out a full team win, the defense, which has been subject of much criticism as of late, turned out a stellar performance overall.
