FAQs: D.C. United vs Cincinnati

How can I watch D.C. United vs. FC Cincinnati?

You can watch the match live on Apple TV, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. ET. A subscription is required; MLS matches are available in the Apple TV app and at tv.apple.com. The game will also be carried on local radio: The Project 100.7 / 106.3 in English and La Mega 101.5 FM in Spanish.

When does the match start, and what time is that in other U.S. time zones?

The match is Wednesday, October 21, at 7 p.m. ET. That’s 6 p.m. CT, 5 p.m. MT and 4 p.m. PT, so West Coast viewers should tune in before the evening commute is over.

Where is the game being played, and which team is at home?

FC Cincinnati hosts D.C. United at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati. The venue gives Cincinnati home-field advantage, while D.C. United is the visiting side.

Is this a playoff game or an MLS regular-season match?

It’s an MLS regular-season match, not a playoff tie. That distinction matters because the result counts in the regular-season standings rather than deciding a postseason series or elimination spot directly.

Why was the match moved to October 21?

The fixture was originally scheduled for September 5 but was postponed after heavy rain and poor weather created concerns about the pitch and player safety. The rescheduled game remains at TQL Stadium, with kickoff at 7 p.m. ET.
