    Charlie Davies scores twice in emotional D.C. debut

    Debut double strike a "special moment" for Davies

    The Charlie Davies comeback story took a fairy tale turn Saturday evening.

    Playing in a competitive match for the first time since the October 2009 car crash, Davies scored two goals, leading D.C. United to a 3-1 win.

    “He deserves every ounce of credit coming back and getting two goals,” head coach Ben Olsen said after the game.

    Davies scores twice in D.C. debut to lead win

    When the final whistle sounded on Saturday night at RFK Stadium, D.C. United forward Charlie Davies walked toward the far stands and gazed into the crowd.

    He looked at the fans who had fueled a comeback he first dreamed of nearly 18 months ago while in a hospital bed just a few miles away, and he cried.

    In his MLS debut with D.C., nearly a year and a half after a fatal car crash nearly took his life, Davies scored twice, once on a penalty kick and another with his trademark speed, to lead United to a 3-1 win over the Columbus Crew before a crowd of 18,132.

            Looked lively and all considered very good.
