Peglow scores in the 90th minute for DC United in 1-1 tie with St. Louis

WASHINGTON (AP) — João Peglow scored a goal in the 90th minute Saturday night for D.C. United in a 1-1 tie with St. Louis City.

Jared Stroud played an arcing corner kick that bent out to Peglow, who stopped it with his first touch and then blasted a shot from outside the penalty arc that capped the scoring.

Conrad Wallem was shown his second yellow card in the second minute of stoppage time and St. Louis played a man down the rest of the way.

Chris Durkin scored in the 50th minute to give St. Louis a 1-0 lead.

Sean Johnson had two saves for D.C. United (4-5-5), which had its five-game unbeaten streak snapped Wednesday by a 3-1 loss to Chicago.

St. Louis (3-6-4) had won back-to-back games for the first time this season.

Roman Bürki had four saves.

DC United cancels Audi Field match vs. Ethiopia, citing Ebola precautions

By Jadon George
D.C. United has canceled its matchup with Ethiopia’s national team in the District, the team wrote in a statement Tuesday, citing difficulties obtaining visas and increased precautions stemming from the Ebola outbreak. It's among the first U.S. sporting events to be called off as a side effect of the outbreak. "D.C. United and the Ethiopian Federation place the highest priority on the health, safety, and well-being of the fans, players, staff, and local community," D.C. United said. "The well-being of everyone involved remains our highest priority and will remain at the forefront of our efforts." The game, scheduled for July 11 at Audi Field, would have marked a third year of partnership between D.C. United and the Ethiopian Football Federation. United had faced the national team in an exhibition game last year, losing 3-0. In September 2024, Audi Field hosted two Ethiopian Premier League teams — Coffee Sport Club and St. George FC — for an exhibition game.
