HARRISON, N.J. (AP) — Dwayne De Rosario scored in the 61st minute to lift D.C. United to a 1-0 win over the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night.

De Rosario, playing against the Red Bulls for the first time since they traded him to United for Dax McCarty on June 27, juked past Roy Miller before slamming a left-footed shot from the box past goalkeeper Greg Sutton. It was De Rosario’s fourth goal of the season and his first in two games since the trade.

Bill Hamid had four saves for United (5-5-7), which was 0-1-6 in its previous seven games.

Sutton finished with two saves for the Red Bulls (6-4-10).
