Two of the hottest teams in MLS took the pitch at RFK

Stadium on Sunday evening, but the hosts would find

the right formula for cooling off Chivas, with an

Eddie Johnson penalty kick, a Perry Kitchen strike

and Luis Silva insurance to record the 3-1 victory.

Uniteds Chris Rolfe found himself at the top of the box

and fooled Ecuadorian international Oswaldo Minda,

who awkwardly took Rolfe down. The ref pointed to the

spot immediately, and Johnson buried the ensuing

penalty kick passed Chivas keeper Dan Kennedy.

In the 60thminute, Kitchen doubled Uniteds lead when

Rolfe bent a 30-yard free kick into the box towards

Johnson who headed it coolly into the path of Kitchen.

Kitchen then laced a low shot towards the near post

leaving Kennedy no chance.

United tallied their third goal of the game in the 70th

minute, when Chris Korb played Silva in who curled his

shot across the face of goal into the far side netting. The

goal capped a 14-pass movement by United.

Chivas finally responded with a goal from the spot

converted by Erick Torres. The penalty was created when

Steve Birnbaum had taken down Chivas midfielder

Mauro Rosales in the box. The goal was Torres 14thof

the year, but Chivas never seemed a capable of

mounting the comeback.
