D.C. United, founded in 1995 as one of MLS’s original teams, quickly established itself as the league’s first dynasty, capturing three of the first four MLS Cups and building a legacy of winning, tradition, and star power. Under legendary coach Bruce Arena, the 1996 D.C. United squad, led by Bolivian playmaker Marco Etcheverry, U.S. forward Roy Lassiter, and goalkeeper Mark Simpson, won the inaugural MLS Cup before repeating in 1997 and capturing the 1998 CONCACAF Champions’ Cup, marking the league’s first continental triumph. The late 1990s and early 2000s featured stars like Jaime Moreno, D.C.’s all-time leading scorer, and midfielder Ben Olsen, who later became the club’s long-time head coach. In 2004, under Peter Nowak, D.C. won its fourth MLS Cup behind MVP Christian Gómez, teenage sensation Freddy Adu, and Moreno’s veteran leadership. The 2010s brought the arrival of English superstar Wayne Rooney, whose highlight-reel goals and leadership rejuvenated the franchise while Bill Hamid anchored the defense as one of MLS’s top goalkeepers. Recent years have focused on rebuilding under coach Wayne Rooney before his 2023 departure, with Belgian forward Christian Benteke and midfielder Mateusz Klich providing European pedigree as the club aims to return to playoff contention. From Etcheverry’s brilliance to Rooney’s stardom, D.C. United’s history blends early dominance, iconic players, and one of MLS’s most passionate supporter cultures through the Barra Brava and Screaming Eagles fan groups.
