MLS Week 12 highlights - RBNY @ DC UNITED

On Saturday night, at a rain-drenched RFK Stadium before a big hometown crowd, DC United's Luciano Emilio scored his first-ever MLS hat trick in their 4-1 win over the New York Red Bulls. Emilio - who was the 2007 MLS MVP - won Week 11's MLS Goal of the Week, and his team is now on a four-match unbeaten streak after early-season struggles.

from MLSNet, "With key veterans Juan Pablo Angel and Claudio Reyna sidelined by injury and young striker Jozy Altidore recently sold to Spanish side Villareal, the visitors RBNY entered the match shorthanded and United showed no mercy, paced by Luciano Emilio's first-ever MLS hat trick and a sizzling long-distance blast from Clyde Simms."
