Review

Preseason

March

D.C. United began their fifteenth Major League Soccer regular season on the road with a match against the Kansas City Wizards on March 27, 2010 followed by their first home match against the New England Revolution on April 3, 2010. Then they faced the Philadelphia Union.[22]

April

The United would drop three more consecutive season games this month, which led the club off to a 0-5-0 start, their worst in franchise history.

Their first match of the month was on April 3, where the United fell late against the Revolution thanks to two goals from Kevin Mansalley in the 80th and 82nd-minute. It was the first time in seven years, the United fell at home against the Revolution.

On April 10, the United traveled out to Philadelphia to take on the expansion MLS-franchise, the Philadelphia Union at Lincoln Financial Field. In front of a crowd of 34,000 the United lost 3-2 in the Union's home-opener. In spite of the loss, goals from Santino Quaranta and Jaime Moreno accounted for the United's first goals of the 2010 season.

A week later, the United could not prevent their worst start of the season, falling 2-0 to the Chicago Fire at home, giving the club an 0-3-0 home record, and a 0-2-0 away record.

In spite of the poor start, there were some signs of good things to come, with the United taking in their first victory since the Carolina Challenge Cup during a U.S. Open Cup play-on proper match against Dallas on April 28.. There, the United would take a 4-2 win, and edge closer to Open Cup qualification.

May

June

June began with a pair of matches against Real Salt Lake; one for the U.S. Open Cup, and another for the regular season; both at RFK Stadium. The Open Cup match was played on June 2, with the United beating Real Salt Lake 2-1, thanks an Andy Najar-goal after extra time. Three days later, the two sides would play again at the same venue, with the teams drawing no goals apiece.

The success continued from their three victories in the past four games, with the United winning their first game on the road for the 2010 season. Before the World Cup break, the United defeated the Seattle Sounders FC 3-2 at Qwest Field; a game where the United had a three-goal lead thanks a hat trick from Chris Pontius, his first of his career.

During the World Cup break, the United schedueled an exhibition match against El Salvador's national team as a fundraiser for the Spanish Catholic Center and United for D.C.. The United would win the friendly thanks to Adam Christman's lone goal in the 54th minute of play. Following the break, the United would travel to Columbus to take on the Crew, where they would fall 2-0, accounting for their first and only loss of the month.

The United ended the month with a 2-0 victory against the Richmond Kickers at George Mason Stadium. The match was a U.S. Open Cup fourth round match, and the United would then play Harrisburg City on July 8 at the Maryland SoccerPlex. With a record of 4-1-1 in all competitions in June, it was the United's most successful month of the year.

July

August

On August 5, following a league-worst 3-12-3 start to the season, head coach Curt Onlafo was fired. Subsequently, ex-D.C. United player, and assistant coach Ben Olsen became interim-head coach for the remainder of the season. His first game as interim head coach was the August 7 league match against New England.

The United would then drop another home match against FC Dallas 3-1 on August 14 before achieving their first win a week later.

Under Olsen's leadership, the United earned their first win in over two months in a 2-0 victory over local rivals, the Philadelphia Union on August 22. Danny Allsopp netted both goals, leading him to be the club's scoring leader for the season. The win was soon negated by a 1-0 loss at Chivas USA a few days later.

In hope to salvage their abysmal season, the United played a full strength lineup in the U.S. Open Cup semifinals against Eastern Conference-rival Columbus Crew. Thanks to Hernández's 13th-minute penalty kick, the United took a 1-0 lead over Columbus for nearly the entire match; however, in the last minute of play, an own goal by Mark Burch forced the game to go into overtime, where a penalty kick from the Crew's captain, Guillermo Barros Schelotto, ultimately led the United to bow out of the tournament.

The 2-1 defeat to Columbus made it the first time since 2007 the United failed to reach the Open Cup finals. The loss ultimately has made it incredibly difficult and arduous to qualify for the 2011-12 edition of the CONCACAF Champions League.

September

The United would start the month off play against Columbus again, at home. A 23rd-minute mishap from keeper Bill Hamid was capitalized by Guillermo Barros Schelotto, which proved to be the difference in the match. DCU would play TFC on the road and win 1-0.

It would be a rematch against Columbus for the United, again at home.
