Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney missed a penalty in a shootout as DC United were knocked out of the MLS play-offs in the first round by Columbus Crew.
The former England captain, 33, took the first penalty after the match had finished 2-2 following extra time, but his shot was saved by Zack Steffen.
Luciano Acosta and Nick DeLeon also missed from the spot as DC lost the shootout 3-2.
Earlier, DeLeon had scored in the 116th minute to send the game to penalties.
Frederic Brillant had given DC the lead in the 21st minute, before Federico Higuain - the brother of AC Milan striker Gonzalo Higuain - scored twice for Crew.
"It's disappointing to lose on penalties but as a team we can be extremely proud of what we have achieved in the last few months," said Rooney.
"Really we had no right to make the play-offs. To do that we have brought belief back to the fans, the team and we have to build on that."
