From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad21 Oct 2030

Tempers go at DC United

Timothy Tillman was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad21 Oct 2030

Brandon Servania falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout21 Oct 2030

No hiding place for Brandan Craig

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Brandan Craig, and the manager let it.

Market21 Oct 2030

Abraham Rodriguez is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at DC United has been clear about where Abraham Rodriguez stands, which is more than many ever get.

The dugout21 Oct 2030

Alex Borto knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at DC United, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market21 Oct 2030

The Leonardo Campana talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. DC United know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

The dugout21 Oct 2030

When it matters, Dante Sealy plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Boardroom21 Oct 2030

The DC United academy earns its keep

47 graduates, from a department now rated 9 out of 20. Nothing about the academy appears in a result, and nothing about the club’s future exists without it.

Loan watch21 Oct 2030

Burnley cannot leave Sam Surridge out

8 starts and an average of 6.49. He went there to play and he is playing, which is the only thing a loan was ever for.

From our football correspondent Steady

Match7 Sep 2030

Leonardo Campana wins it after the whistle should have gone

95 minutes played. Leonardo Campana found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Chicago Fire went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Player ratings9 Sep 2030

Vintage Pep Biel — 8.09

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.09, and nobody on the pitch better.

Transfer targets9 Sep 2030

Abraham Rodriguez due for a DC United medical

Everything agreed with another club, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad9 Sep 2030

A falling-out at DC United

Timothy Tillman and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings9 Sep 2030

Dante Sealy runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad9 Sep 2030

A row about effort at DC United

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Brandon Servania was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match7 Sep 2030

Leonardo Campana sends DC United past Chicago Fire

It finished 2‑1, and it was Leonardo Campana’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to DC United.

The terraces9 Sep 2030

One of their own: Caleb Swann

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

The dugout9 Sep 2030

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Gio Zardes, on a 2‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market2 Sep 2030

Niko Markovic puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at DC United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad2 Sep 2030

Timothy Tillman in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at DC United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad2 Sep 2030

Pep Biel falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match31 Aug 2030

DC United find a way past Nashville SC

Nashville SC made DC United work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Match31 Aug 2030

DC United end the wait against Nashville SC

It had gone 5 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

Player ratings2 Sep 2030

A masterclass from Levi Garcia

Marked 8.16 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings2 Sep 2030

A masterclass from Lawrence Ennali

Marked 8.05 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

The dugout2 Sep 2030

The team sheet said everything about Leonardo Campana

Warm-up bib, ninety minutes of watching, and a handshake at the end that fooled nobody. Big matches tell you who a manager trusts; this one told Leonardo Campana.

Squad2 Sep 2030

Brandan Craig makes it 100

100 times in these colours, in all weathers and under four or five different managers. That kind of service is quietly disappearing from the game.

In brief
