Charlie Davies, lightning-fast U.S. striker who was injured badly (and that covers almost every meaning of "badly" short of quadriplegia or death) in a car crash a couple of years ago, has been forging a comeback and was picked up by the formerly-good D.C. United squad, which plays just up the road from me.
Saturday was their first game, and Davies got two goals, a penalty kick and a curving run for the second at 77 minutes.
Not a bad start to the comeback. Josh Wolff, another player with something to prove, got the other goal in DC United's win over the Columbus Crew.
Debut double strike a "special moment" for Davies
Video highlights of the game (Davies 2nd goal sequence starts at 4:43)
They also had a great save on a headed free kick at about 70 minutes (4:17 on the highlight video) by Onstro.
