Puebla (1-3-3 and 17 th in 20- team Liga MX) retained three starters from the 1-1 draw at Que- retaro on Sunday. Five others were available as subs. After recent acquisition Em- manuel Boateng missed an open net, United went ahead in the fourth minute. Acosta created the danger, and right back Leonardo Jara swung a cross to Quincy Amarikwa for a simple six-yard volley. Seitz, starting for Bill Hamid, made two quality saves before intermission and one late. In the 75th minute, however, Diego Abella beat him with a rasping drive from the top of the box. Notes: Argentine attacker Yamil Asad signed a short-term deal with Loudoun United and a three-year precontract with D.C. United, effective in January, multiple people close to the situation said. He attended the Puebla match and joined the team in the locker room afterward. Asad will begin playing for Loudoun as soon as a work visa is approved. He posted nine goals and eight assists with D.C. last season while on loan from Argen- tine club Velez Sarsfield, then re- turned home this year for just one appearance....

The performance, in turn, was stronger as well. “We haven’t shown well in these friendlies, and people are paying to come see us play,” goalkeeper Chris Seitz said. “We have

tion after intermission and attacker Lucas Rodríguez (27 starts) recorded 29 minutes. The aim was to keep regulars in rhythm — and, in the case of Rooney and Acosta, provide com- petitive minutes — before United (11-10-9) makes the final four- game push for the postseason. United fielded a much stronger

Starters typically sit out friendlies or play briefly, but with Unit- ed off from MLS until Sept. 15 at Portland, Olsen summoned not just Rooney and Acosta but also Joseph Mora, Felipe Martins and Ulises Segura.

A late-season friendly in the
heat of the MLS playoff race hard-
ly seemed like the proper circum-
stance for D.C. United’s Wayne
Rooney and Luciano Acosta to
reprise their starting partnership.
But with both in need of play-
ing time and the league rigors on
pause this weekend, the top-shelf
attackers were in action Wednes-
day for all of the 1-1 draw with
Mexico’s Club Puebla before
about 6,000 at Audi Field.
Rooney almost provided a phe-
nomenal finish, hitting the cross-
bar on a 35-yard free kick on the
last touch of the entertaining
match. A few minutes earlier,
Puebla’s Emiliano Garcia, a 15-
year-old prospect wearing
No. 250, hit the frame.
“From a coaching standpoint of
what you would want out of a
friendly,” Coach Ben Olsen said,
“this is exactly what we want.”
Several regulars logged serious
minutes. Reserves saw real ac-
tion. And from initial postgame
indications, there were no inju-
ries.
Olsen had stressed the impor-
tance of giving Rooney and Acos-
ta good, long runs. Rooney had
missed four of the past eight
league matches for a variety of
reasons; Acosta lost his starting
job amid a disappointing season.
They have not started together in
league play since Aug. 4.

Rooney, Acosta both go the distance in friendly
