""It will be impossible to compare those games," he said. "It's a new game, and we'll prepare for it how we have always prepared, trying to get a good result at home.""
""It was a very good point away, but when you lead 2-0, only 15 minutes before the end, then you want to win the game. "In the end, it was tough with one man less. We will take this point and I'm very happy with the performance. "Now we have two home games, so we have to go back and rest well because it will be tough with three games in a week. "But at least we'll play two times at home, and we'll try to win the next one against Chicago.""
"Back on the fourth matchday of the year on March 15, D.C. won 2-1 in Chicago following a 95th-minute penalty from Tai Baribo, but Weiler warned Chicago - who are enjoying a strong campaign - will offer a real challenge next time out."
"Weiler's side drew 2-2 at Nashville SC on Saturday, having led 2-0 when they had Silvan Hefti sent off with 15 minutes to play. Warren Madrigal's double then snatched a point for in-form Nashville, though D.C. did at least escape Geodis Park with a draw."
D.C. United coach Rene Weiler said Wednesday’s match against Chicago Fire will be different from the earlier 2-1 win in March. D.C. sits fifth in the Eastern Conference with 16 points from 12 games, one point behind Chicago, which has played one fewer match. D.C. drew 2-2 at Nashville SC after leading 2-0, but Silvan Hefti was sent off with 15 minutes remaining and Warren Madrigal scored twice to earn Nashville a point. Weiler said the team wanted to win despite being down a player. D.C. has two home games and must rest because of three games in a week, with the next target being Chicago. Chicago lost 3-1 to New York Red Bulls and are seven points behind Nashville.
