Olsen: United's failure to kill off Chivas inexcusable
WASHINGTON ? Up two goals in the second half, at home, against a Chivas USA team they beat 3-0 only 11 earlier, D.C. United were poised to continue to make a push towards the playoffs.
But in what has been an all too familiar refrain at RFK Stadium, DC squandered a lead, couldn?t close out a game, and dropped two points thanks to a pair of Juan Pablo �ngel goals in the second half.
Head coach Ben Olsen didn?t take kindly to the 2-2 result.

Quaranta, Hamid return from injury to bolster United
D.C. United?s pesky injury bug appears to be nearing an end.
Goalkeeper Bill Hamid and midfielder Santino Quaranta are set to make a return to the starting lineup against Chivas USA on Wednesday at RFK Stadium (Buy tickets) after missing Saturday?s 3-0 loss to the Seattle Sounders.
Quaranta, who was scratched from the lineup against Seattle with a left quadriceps spasm, trained all last week in the lead-up to the game but was eventually held out from the 18-man roster.
