D.C. United goalkeeper Bill Hamid had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via MLS's official website): "KC is doing well to keep pressure on us. New England is coming hard and fast. We want the No. 1 spot and we're going to keep pushing for it. Now the goal is to get as many points as possible. Even if we go on the road, we have to get one point, we have to lock it down. We want to keep climbing the ladder, so we can clinch that No. 1 spot."

Tactical Preview
