Pedro Santos, Derrick Etienne Jr. and Darlington Nagbe score in the Crew's first win since March 12.

A third-minute opportunity for Miguel Berry with his back to goal inside the 6-yard box, and a fifth-minute shot in front of an open net yielded nothing for the Crew on Saturday against D.C. United.

One goal, one result could change things. That had been the MO for the Crew in their attempt to end a five-game winless streak in which they’ve failed to score a goal in 360 minutes of league play. "There's some moments we dodged a few bullets today," Porter said."It was a day where early on we got a little luck with the post. Those are things that don't get lost on me. But yeah, pedro's goal was massive."

Williams splashed a perfect pass over the top of the D.C. United defense onto the run of Etienne at the left corner of the box. He chested it down and hit the ball first time, perfectly in stride to sneak it inside the far post for a 2-0 lead. There was no public indication that Porter’s job was on the line entering Saturday’s game, but the pressure from fans had only grown stronger as the goals and points dried up in the past weeks. A loss in the U.S. Open Cup to USL side Detroit City and trading forward Gyasi Zardes — the club’s third all-time leading scorer and fan favorite — only amplified frustration.

Silva, MacMath, video review lead RSL past LA Galaxy 1-0The LA Galaxy's apparent equalizer in second-half stoppage time was disallowed after a video review, and Real Salt Lake held on for a 1-0 victory in a Major League Soccer game on Saturday. I like this whole “we’ll cover them if they win” approach to RSL. Let’s do that for all the local teams. Except the Bees. Keep ignoring them.
