How good are D.C. United Women?
Their opponent in Sunday’s W-League East final, the Charlotte Lady Eagles, had eliminated the defending W-League champion Atlanta Silverbacks by winning their division. Charlotte followed that up with a rout over the Long Island Rough Riders, who had won a tough division that included the talent-laden New Jersey Wildcats.
Tough test? You’d think so. But United had Charlotte on its heels from the get-go, taking a fully deserved 3-0 win.
Next up: the W-League semifinals as the Eastern U.S. representative. Pali Blues will represent the West, and Quebec City Amiral will make the slightly shorter trip to join the host Ottawa Fury.
