Well, it had to come to an end at some point. Villa's unbeaten start to the Premiership season ended yesterday at Anfield as Liverpool beat them
3-1 in a game that at one point I feared could have been a hammering. Nevermind. Next Saturday Blackburn Rovers visit Villa Park, and that should be an easy three points.
The
Caps meanwhile aren't having the best of road trips. There only win came against the Colorado Avalanche, who they beat
5-3 on Wednesday. They lost
3-2 (SO) to the Vancouver Canucks on Friday, and then last night, were beaten
4-0 by the Edmonton Oilers. The Caps play the Calgary Flames next on Monday night.
D.C. United lost their last game of the MLS season
3-2 to the Chicago Fire. They still won the Eastern Conference by miles, though. Last weekend they took a
1-0 aggregate lead against the Red Bulls in the MLS Cup. The second leg is later this evening, and D.C. United's away goal puts them in a very strong position indeed.
