Second-half rally shows promise, but comes up short

When Jan Gunnar Solli?s 55th minute strike gave New York a 3-1 edge on Saturday night, D.C. United were in an unfamiliar spot.  For the first time since an early May loss to San Jose, the Black-and-Red found themselves trailing by multiple goals.  In most corners of a sold-out Red Bull Arena, there was little sense that Ben Olsen?s side might muster a comeback. 

That sense ? bolstered by the fact that United had struggled to enjoy any meaningful possession ? did not make its way into the visitors? psyche.
