HOUSTON DYNAMO vs SPORTING KANSAS CITY BBVA COMPASS STADIUM, Houston, Texas Oct. 9, 2013 (WEEK 33, MLS Game #298) 7:30 p.m. CT (CSN-Hou; KSMO) The Houston Dynamo and Sporting Kansas City will meet again in a potential playoff preview when the Eastern Conference foes clash on Wednesday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. Both teams come into the game with the opportunity of sealing their berths in the MLS Cup Playoffs with a victory – and they’ve met in the postseason each of the last two years. The Dynamo sit in third in the East after their 1-0 home win vs. Montréal, four points behind Sporting, who are in second after kicking off their road swing with a 1-0 win at Columbus.

Aurélien Collin’s header in the 73rd minute was the only goal of the game as Sporting put an end to the Dynamo’s 30-game league home undefeated streak on May 12 at BBVA Compass Stadium; two weeks later, SKC’s Kei Kamara and Houston’s Brad Davis traded goals to leave the teams in a 1-1 draw at Sporting Park. The Sporting win in the first meeting was the first victory for the road team in the series since 2009, and Sporting’s second win ever in Houston. The last three league meetings at Sporting Park have ended in draws. The teams met in the MLS Cup Playoffs for a second consecutive season last year, the Dynamo winning their semifinal series 2-1 on aggregate. In 2011, the Dynamo won 2-0 in the Eastern Conference Championship at Sporting Park. Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. HOU: P10 W3 L2 D5 … Dominic Kinnear vs. KC: P23 W8 L6 D9 LAST MEETING (MLS) A key talking point came in the 38th minute. Brad Davis went down under a challenge from Oriol Rosell, and referee Drew Fischer immediately pointed to the spot. But after protests from Sporting's players, Fischer conferred with assistant referee Kevin Duliba and waved off the penalty ruling. The Dynamo took the lead in the first minute of stoppage time. Giles Barnes flicked the ball on forward to Will Bruin, who took it with his back to the defense and worked free before slotting a quick through ball to Brad Davis for a finish inside goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen's near post. Sporting drew even in the 68th minute. After Jacob Peterson got a touch on Oriol Rosell's through ball, Claudio Bieler's square pass found Kei Kamara just outside the area after a dummy and he slotted into the lower right corner for the equalizer.

MLS GAME INFORMATION
HOUSTON DYNAMO The Houston Dynamo extended their undefeated streak to four games, holding on for a 1-0 win against the Montréal Impact on Saturday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo are in third place in the Eastern Conference with 47 points from 31 matches. LAST MATCH The game's only goal came after just six minutes. A good buildup saw Boniek Garcia find Giles Barnes at the top of the box, who then chested a perfect ball into the path of an onrushing Ricardo Clark. He then cut back to create space for a shot that curled away from goalkeeper Troy Perkins and nestled in the back of the net. Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall was called upon to make four saves in keeping the clean sheet. Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear made no changes to his team for a second consecutive match, maintaining the group that came back for a 1-1 draw with the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium. HOUSTON DYNAMO (4-4-2): Tally Hall - Kofi Sarkodie, Jermaine Taylor, Bobby Boswell, Corey Ashe - Boniek Garcia, Warren Creavalle, Ricardo Clark, Brad Davis (Andrew Driver 86) - Will Bruin (Cam Weaver 79), Giles Barnes (Omar Cummings 88). TEAM NEWS The Dynamo extended their undefeated streak to four games, one game shy of their season-long, set April 14May 8. “We knew we wanted to get on top of them right away early and put pressure on them,” said Brad Davis. “I think we gave them a little too much respect up there when we were in Montreal. We knew we were going to be tougher.” For the second time in four matches, Ricardo Clark scored the only goal for a 1-0 Dynamo victory. Clark has four goals, the most in a single season in his nine-year MLS career. “He always puts in the work, and you can always count on him to give 100 percent,” said center back Bobby Boswell. “All we needed was one tonight. When you score that early goal, your chances of getting a win are so much better of getting a good result, and you saw it tonight. Credit to Ricardo for that.” Clark has two goals and an assist over the last four matches, all in the starting lineup after being out of the first XI for four consecutive matches. “I think he does a lot of things that maybe a lot of people don’t get or don’t see,” Houston head coach Dominic Kinnear said. “I think the coaching staff understands how valuable he is to the team. I think if you step back, you realize how important he is when he’s not on the field for us.” Boniek Garcia recorded an assist for a second consecutive match. He has been involved with each of the Dynamo’s last four goals, over the last three games (2 goals, 2 assists). Andrew Driver made his first appearance in more than a month in a substitute role, playing the final four minutes. Garcia will miss the Sporting KC match, along with Jermaine Taylor, on international duty. “The positive side out of it was that we came out of it healthy, that’s the most important thing, because you knew Wednesday you were going to be two light with international duty so you want to make sure you got through this game and the reserve game,” said Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear. SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City won for a fourth time in five matches, getting the game’s only goal for a victory against the Columbus Crew on Saturday evening at Crew Stadium. Sporting are in second place in the Eastern Conference with 51 points from 31 matches. LAST MATCH The game's only goal came in the 17th minute. A half-clearance from a corner kick rolled back to Graham Zusi, and he found an unmarked Ike Opara on the far side of goal for a close-range header that left Columbus goalkeeper Matt Lampson with no chance for a save. Sporting goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen was called upon to make just a single save for the shutout. Sporting manager Peter Vermes made four changes to the team that fell 1-0 to Philadelphia Union at Sporting Park. Matt Besler came into central defense in place of Aurelien Collin, Lawrence Olum and Peterson Joseph started in the midfield in place of Oriol Rosell and Benny Feilhaber, and Soony Saad came into a wide role in place of Jacob Peterson. SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-3-1): Jimmy Nielsen - Chance Myers, Ike Opara, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic Lawrence Olum, Peterson Joseph - C.J. Sapong, Graham Zusi, Soony Saad (Jacob Peterson 70) - Dom Dwyer (Teal Bunbury 84). TEAM NEWS Sporting won for the fourth time in the last five matches, and won for the second consecutive away match. “With the way everything is bunched up in both the East and West at the moment, all of these games coming down the stretch are playoff games,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “In a way it's good because everyone is having to keep their game up. So if you get into the playoffs you will be at that same level. For us, it was a good performance and a great result coming here because it is not an easy place to play.”
MLS GAME INFORMATION
Sporting also kept a clean sheet for the second time in four games, and have allowed just five goals over the last eight matches. “We were very difficult to play against tonight,” Vermes said. “Very difficult to play against. I thought our mentality was really good throughout the course of the game. If I had one flaw for us through the game, it's that we gave up one too many set pieces. But outside of that, we were very good.” Matt Besler made his first start since Aug. 31, having missed the last three matches first to injury and international duty, then to keep him “healthy and hungry,” Vermes said. Ike Opara scored his third goal of the season for the game-winner vs. Columbus, matching his single-season career-high set in his rookie season of 2010, when he scored three goals with San Jose. “They were excellent,” Vermes said. “They were both very good on the ball. They make very good decisions on the ball, and they were both very good in the one-on-one duels that they had. They read the game very, very well.” Said Opara: “We just wanted to stay compact. We know they have some good players. … For us it was all about being in the correct starting positions and if they did break us down at times being able to recover and just working all game.” Graham Zusi recorded a second assist in the last three games, making his third consecutive start since missing the Columbus match on Sept. 7 to injury.

DYNAMO NOTES
Dynamo climb to third place in Eastern Conference with 1‐0 triumph over Montreal: Ricardo Clark scored a beautiful goal in the sixth minute to lead the Dynamo to a 1‐0 win over the Montreal Impact on Friday night at BBVA Compass Stadium. The win lifted the Dynamo past the Impact and into third place in the Eastern Conference with three games remaining. Friday’s victory was the 100th regular season win in Dynamo franchise history. Houston (100‐72‐79) has averaged 12.5 wins and 47.38 points per season since its inaugural season in 2006. Houston’s scoring play began when Boniek Garcia delivered a lofted ball from midfield to Giles Barnes, who settled the ball in the path of Clark, who cut back 25 yards from goal, switching the ball from his left foot to his right, before curling a sensational goal inside the right side of the net for a 1‐0 lead. It was Clark’s fourth goal of the season to set a new career‐high. Clark has two goals and an assist in his last four games. The sixth‐minute goal was the earliest scored by Houston this season. Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall made several saves to make Clark’s goal stand up as the game‐winner. Hall’s biggest save arrived in the 71st minute. Montreal substitute forward Andrew Wenger broke in behind the Houston defense and was alone on goal, 1v1 with Hall. Wenger’s shot was low and to Hall’s right, but the Houston goalkeeper made a quick reaction save, pushing it wide of the post to preserve the lead. Houston improved to 12‐0‐3 when scoring the first in a game this season, the best record in Major League Soccer.
Dynamo milestones from Friday’s 1‐0 win over Montreal Impact: It was Bobby Boswell’s 225th game in all competitions with Houston to pass Brian Ching for third on the club chart. It was Ricardo Clark’s 12th career regular season goal with Houston to pass Geoff Cameron and tie Cam Weaver for sixth on the franchise list. Both Giles Barnes and Boniek Garcia earned assists on Clark’s goal. It was Garcia’s 12th career regular season assist with Houston to pass Dwayne De Rosario and tie Will Bruin and Clark for eighth on the club list. Defender Corey Ashe (15,417 minutes in all competitions) passed Pat Onstad (15,339 minutes) for third on the franchise minutes list. Clark (15,047 career minutes with Dynamo in all competitions) surpassed 15,000 career minutes and overtook Brian Ching (14,970 minutes) for fifth on the franchise list.
Dynamo reach 100 all‐time regular season wins: Houston’s 1‐0 victory over the Montreal Impact on Friday was the club’s 100th regular season wins in eight seasons since joining Major League Soccer at the start of the 2006 season. Houston (100‐72‐79; 379 points) has averaged 12.5 wins and 47.38 points per season, including the current campaign. The Dynamo have the third best win percentage in league history (.556), trailing the Seattle Sounders (.604) and LA Galaxy (.564).
Boniek Garcia, Jermaine Taylor join national teams for World Cup Qualifiers: Dynamo midfielder Boniek Garcia joined the Honduras national team and defender Jermaine Taylor joined the Jamaica national team for the final two World Cup qualifying matches, which are set for Friday and next Tuesday. Both players will miss Wednesday’s game against Sporting Kansas City. García has featured in each of Honduras’ 14 qualifying matches for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, scoring one goal. The Tegucigalpa native has earned 87 caps for Honduras. Honduras needs four points from its final two qualifying matches to guarantee a place in Brazil. Honduras has a home game at Costa Rica on Friday before finishing the Hexagonal Round at Jamaica on Tuesday, Oct. 15. Taylor has 71 caps for the Jamaican national team, which is eliminated from contention for the 2014 World Cup. Jamaica faces the United States on Friday in Kansas City before hosting Honduras on Tuesday. Clark sets career‐highs in goals, assists: After already setting a career‐high with his fourth assist of the season on Sept. 21 vs. Chivas USA, Ricardo Clark set another career best with his fourth goal of the season, the winner in Friday’s 1‐0 triumph on Montreal. Clark has two goals and an assist in his last four games since returning to the starting lineup on Sept. 14 at Philadelphia.
Ricardo Clark’s value evident in Dynamo success: The Dynamo are 12‐7‐7 in games started by Ricardo Clark this season. In games Clark did not start, the club is 1‐3‐1. Moreover, the Dynamo are 7‐0‐1 when Clark has recorded a goal or an assist in a game this season. Of the eight games Clark has recorded a goal or assist, six have been decided by a goal or less. Clark’s goals and assists have also been vital: Three of his four goals were game‐winning goals (including each of his last three goals, all in 1‐0 wins) and all four of his assists have been a game‐winning assist or tied the game.
Dynamo Reserves defeat Montreal Impact Reserves on Saturday: Cam Weaver’s goal just before halftime stood up as the game‐winner as the Houston Dynamo Reserves defeated the Montreal Impact Reserves, 1‐0, on Saturday morning at Houston Methodist Champions’ Field at Houston Sports Park. The Dynamo Reserves finish the MLS Reserve League season 5‐4‐0 (15 points) in the East Division. The Impact Reserves are now 4‐4‐3 (15 points). Houston’s scoring play began with a well‐weighted through ball from Dynamo guest player Joe Dixon, who threaded his pass to Omar Cummings. The Dynamo forward drove toward the near post before slotting a pinpoint pass to Weaver, who finished his chance for a 1‐0 lead in the 44th minute. Houston goalkeeper Tyler Deric recorded his second Reserve League shutout of the season. Houston Dynamo Reserves Lineup Summary: Tyler Deric; Christian Gonzalez*, Eric Brunner, Antony Arena, Mike Chabala; Jason Johnson, Servando Carrasco, Alexander Lopez, Joe Dixon* (Bryan Salazar 46); Cam Weaver © (Andrew Driver 61), Omar Cummings (Memo Rodriguez 89^).
Dynamo are best in MLS when scoring first: Houston is 12‐0‐3 (W‐L‐T) when scoring the first goal in a game this season, the best win percentage in MLS (.900). Sporting KC is dangerous as well, with a 13‐2‐3 (.806) mark when scoring first. Conversely, the Dynamo struggle when allowing the opponent to score first, with a 1‐10‐4 mark (.200) when falling behind in a game, the sixth‐worst record in the league.
Will Bruin has most assists in single season ever by Dynamo player not named Davis: Will Bruin recorded his seventh assist of the season on Sept. 21 against Chivas USA. Bruin has the most assists in a single season ever by a Dynamo player outside of Brad Davis. Two other players have recorded six assists in a season: Boniek Garcia in 2012 and Geoff Cameron in 2009. But no player outside of Davis and Bruin has recorded seven in a season. Davis has the seven of the eight highest single‐season assist totals in club history: 16 (2011), 12 (2012, 2010, 2009), 11 (2006), and 8 (2013 and 2008) Will Bruin’s passes Dwayne De Rosario’s on Dynamo all‐time goals list: Will Bruin goal at New England on Sept. 28 was his 25th career regular season goal to pass Dynamo legend Dwayne De Rosario on the club’s all‐time goals list. It was the second straight week Bruin surpassed De Rosario in an offensive category after he registered his 12th career regular season assist against Chivas USA on Sept. 21. Bruin’s early career is statistically similar to De Rosario’s Dynamo tenure. De Rosario spent three seasons with Houston, 2006‐2008. Bruin is in his third year with Houston after Dominic Kinnear traded up to select him in the first round of the 2011 MLS SuperDraft. Here are the regular season numbers for each player in their time with the Dynamo:
Player Games played Games started Minutes Goals Assists Shots Shots on goal Will Bruin 84 79 25 12 6,538 217 83 Dwayne De Rosario 78 73 24 11 6,455 195 84 The numbers are remarkably similar (with an understanding that De Rosario was primarily an attacking midfielder and Bruin a forward). Bruin has nearly accumulated identical goals and assist totals over a similar number of games and minutes. In the playoffs, the story is similar. De Rosario scored two goals and provided four assists in ten career playoff games with Houston (all starts). Bruin has four goals and one assist in nine career playoff games (six starts). Davis records 100th career regular season assist to become seventh MLS player to reach 100 mark: Brad Davis assisted on Giles Barnes’ opening goal in the 5‐1 win over Chivas USA on Sept. 21 for his 100th career regular season assist. He is the seventh player in Major League Soccer history to record 100 career assists. Davis is one behind Marco Etcheverry (101) and two assists behind Jaime Moreno (102) on the all‐time list. Davis needs 35 more assists to tie Dynamo assistant coach Steve Ralston, who holds the MLS record with 135. Davis has been prolific over the last five seasons, with 60 assists since the start of 2009 after recording 40 assists in his first seven years in MLS. Dynamo finish regular season with three of final four games at home: Beginning Friday against Montreal, the Dynamo began a stretch of three consecutive home games before completing the regular season at D.C. United on Oct. 27. Last season, the Dynamo finished their season with the same sequence of games – three straight at home before the season finale on the road. Entering the three‐game homestand a year ago, Houston held the fifth and final playoff spot in the East, one point above sixth place Columbus. The Dynamo would take seven points from the final three home games – with wins over New England and Philadelphia and a draw against Montreal. Dynamo match franchise record with five goals in route of Chivas USA: The Dynamo scored five goals on Sept. 21 vs. Chivas USA for the third time in franchise history – and first time in MLS play since the club’s very first game. The Dynamo previously scored five goals in an MLS game in their inaugural game in Houston ‐ April 2, 2006 – a 5‐2 win over the Colorado Rapids behind four goals from Brian Ching. Houston also scored five goals in a 5‐1 win over Árabe Unido in the CONCACAF Champions League on Sept. 22, 2009.
Boniek Garcia, Giles Barnes each record brace in 5‐1 win: The 5‐1 victory over Chivas USA was highlighted by the first two‐goal game in Boniek Garcia’s Dynamo career. Meanwhile, Giles Barnes is making a habit of two‐goal outings at BBVA Compass Stadium. It was Barnes’ second two‐goal performance in a four‐week span, with only one home game in between his two‐ goal nights after Barnes scored twice in a 3‐1 win over Seattle Sounders FC on Aug. 17. For Garcia, it was his first two goals of the season.
Bruin tallies goal and assist: Will Bruin recorded his fourth performance this season with at least a goal and an assist on Sept. 21 against Chivas USA (1 goal and 1 assist). His others came on Aug. 17 vs. Seattle (1 goal, 1 assist); Aug. 3 vs. Columbus (1 goal, 1 assist) and May 8 at D.C. United, when he became the first Dynamo player in team history to record two goals and two assists in a single game. Bruin has four of Houston’s five goal + assist games this year. The other was produced by Brad Davis, when he had a goal and assist in a 2‐1 win over Chicago on April 14. Last season, Bruin had two games with at least a goal and an assist.
Dominic Kinnear climbs to third on MLS wins list: Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear recorded his 125th career win as an MLS head coach on Sept. 14 at Philadelphia to pass Bob Bradley for third on the MLS all‐time wins chart. Kinnear is in his 10th year as head coach between Houston and San Jose and is the seventh‐longest tenured head coach in American professional sports. Kinnear only trails Sigi Schmid (187 wins) and Bruce Arena (157 wins) on the league’s all‐time wins list. The chart below details the coaches with the most regular season wins in Major League Soccer history:

Better late than never: The Dynamo have scored 14 of 39 goals in the 2013 regular season after the 75th minute. In addition, Houston has scored 19 of 39 goals after the 60th minute, and 25 of 39 goals after halftime. The late goals continue a trend for Houston, which set a franchise record with 17 goals after the 75th minute in 2012 after scoring 14 late goals in 2011. The 17 late goals last season was historic, with only the 2012 San Jose Earthquakes (22) and 2009 Real Salt Lake (19) scoring more goals after the 75th minute since 2006 (more details on page 9). The Dynamo also scored a late goal (Brad Davis, 89th minute) in a 1‐0 win over Santos Laguna on March 5 in the CONCACAF Champions League. Dynamo acquire midfielder Servando Carrasco from Seattle Sounders: The Dynamo acquired midfielder Servando Carrasco and a natural second‐round draft pick in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft from the Seattle Sounders on Sept. 13 in exchange for Adam Moffat. Carrasco, 25, made 13 MLS starts (19 appearances) with Seattle in 2013, scoring one goal and adding one assist. The San Diego native also had a notable college career with the University of California, where he was a two‐time Second Team All‐Pac 10 selection and a First Team All‐Pac 10 honoree as a senior. A tenacious midfielder who joined Houston via trade from Portland in July 2011, Moffat played an important role in helping the Dynamo reach consecutive MLS Cup finals in 2011 and 2012.
Most goals allowed at home in team history: The 4‐1 defeat to the New York Red Bulls on Sept. 8 was the most goals allowed in a home game in team history. In fact, it was just the fifth time in club history the Dynamo have allowed four or more goals in a league game. The previous four all occurred on the road: 5‐0 loss at Montreal on 8/24/13; 4‐2 defeat at Montreal on 6/23/12; 4‐1 loss at LA Galaxy on 6/5/2010; and a 4‐3 setback at Kansas City on 9/22/10.
Dynamo sign Honduran midfielder Alexander López: The Dynamo announced the signing of Honduran midfielder Alexander López on Aug. 7. The 21‐year‐old was added to the Dynamo roster as a Young Designated Player and he made his debut at W Connection last Tuesday. López played for Honduran powerhouse C.D. Olimpia since 2010, where he was a teammate of current Dynamo midfielder Boniek García. López was a regular for the Honduran national team at the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup, appearing in all five games and making four starts, including Honduras’ semifinal loss to the United States. López also appeared in three games at the 2012 Olympics in London, including an appearance in Honduras’ quarterfinal loss to Brazil. The midfielder has eight caps with the Honduras national team after regular appearances with the youth national teams, including the 2009 FIFA U‐17 World Cup. López registered 18 goals and 34 assists in 51 career league games with Olimpia.
Davis becomes first Dynamo man to 20,000 minutes: Brad Davis started the 1‐0 loss at Real Salt Lake on Aug. 10 and played 90 minutes to become the first player in Dynamo history to surpass 20,000 career minutes (20,041) in all competitions with Houston.
Davis registers 20th career multi‐assist game: Brad Davis earned his 20th career regular season multi‐assist game in the 3‐1 victory over Seattle on Aug. 17. It was Davis’ first two‐assist game of the season. The midfielder had three last year, including two assists in consecutive games (7/21 vs. Montreal and 7/28 at Toronto FC). Davis had four multi‐assist games in 2011, including three assists against Vancouver in a 3‐1 home win. Davis is tied for fifth all‐ time in multi‐assist games among MLS players. The top five multi‐assist totals in Major League Soccer history:
PLAYER Carlos Valderrama Landon Donovan Preki Steve Ralston Brad Davis Marco Etcheverry
MULTI‐ASSIST GAMES 27 24 22 21 20 20
CAREER ASSISTS 114 117 112 135 100 101
Cold Blooded: The Dynamo’s last two defeats – at Columbus on Sept. 4 and vs. New York on Sept. 8 – arrived in uncharacteristic fashion, with game time temperatures above 80 degrees. Houston is now 25‐6‐12 since 2011 when the temperature is 80 degrees or more at kickoff. The Dynamo went 12‐1‐4 in 2012 when the temperature was 80 degrees or above, with 14 of the 17 games at BBVA Compass Stadium.
Ashe, Davis start MLS All‐Star game in Kansas City: Dynamo defender Corey Ashe and midfielder Brad Davis both started the MLS All‐Star Game on July 31 in Kansas City. Ashe played the first 66 minutes and Davis played the first half of the All‐Stars’ 3‐1 loss to AS Roma. Tally Hall was also named to the All‐Star team as part of the inactive roster. It was Davis’ sixth All‐Star nod and the second for both Ashe and Hall.
Davis makes 300th career regular season appearance: Houston midfielder Brad Davis entered as a first half substitute against Chicago on July 27 for his 300th career regular season appearances in his 12‐year MLS career. Davis is the 22nd player in Major League Soccer history to join the 300 club. The previous three active players to reach 300 games were Ramiro Corrales (San Jose), Kyle Beckerman (Real Salt Lake) and Dwayne De Rosario (D.C. United). Goalkeeper Kevin Hartman (416 games) is the all‐time league leader in games while Dynamo assistant coach Steve Ralston holds the league mark for field players (378 games). Davis has become more durable with age, setting career‐highs in games and starts (34 each) as well as minutes (2,892) in 2011 before exceeding all other season totals in 2012 (31 starts, 28 games, 2,523 minutes). The six‐time MLS All‐Star has won the last four Dynamo MVP awards and is the franchise leader in games, starts and assists.
Boswell leads MLS defenders in starts since 2005: Bobby Boswell has started the most regular season games by an MLS defender since 2005 (251 starts).
Dynamo become third team in U.S. pro sports history to play 20 games in new stadium without defeat: With a 2‐0 win over San Jose on March 30, the Dynamo became one of only three teams in the history of the major North American professional sports leagues to go undefeated in their first 20 regular season games at a home venue. The Dynamo were undefeated in 22 regular season games at BBVA Compass Stadium before a 1‐0 loss to Sporting KC on May 12. The first team to reach 20 home games in a new home without defeat was the Washington Capitols of the Basketball Association of America (predecessor of todayʹs NBA), who won their first 27 games at Uline Arena in 1946‐1947. The second team to go undefeated in their first 20 regular season games was the Los Angeles Sparks of the WNBA, who won their first 22 games at Staples Center (2001‐2002). *Note courtesy of the Elias Sports Bureau, Official Statistician of Major League Soccer.

The Dynamo also set new MLS regular season home unbeaten streak record: The loss to Sporting KC also snapped Houston’s league record regular season home unbeaten streak at 30 games, which was set with a 1‐1 draw vs. Colorado on April 28. The streak eclipsed Real Salt Lake’s previous regular season record of 29 games. The Dynamo had not lost a home game in over 22 months, with their previous home defeat on June 18, 2011, a 2‐0 loss to Columbus.

COMPARING THE STREAKS: HOUSTON DYNAMO VS. REAL SALT LAKE Twowo years ago (April 27, 2011), Real Salt Lake’s historic 34‐game home unbeaten streak (in all competitions) came to an end with a 1‐0 home loss to C.F. Monterrey in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League final. The run at home set a benchmark for home dominance that seemed untouchable to many. After all, only three teams in MLS history had regular season home unbeaten streaks of 18 games or more: Columbus Crew (22 games, 2008‐09); LA Galaxy (18 games, 2010‐11) and the San Jose Earthquakes (18 games, 2004‐05). When comparing the Real Salt Lake’s streak from 2009‐11 to the Dynamo’s home streak from 2011‐13 that ended with a 1‐0 loss to Sporting Kansas City on May 12, they are amazingly similar in results and share several related themes. First, both clubs boasted fantastic defensive records at home, with Real Salt Lake conceding only 18 goals during their 34‐game home streak and the Dynamo allowing just 25 goals during their 36‐game home run. Here is a look at home the home unbeaten streaks compare, beginning with the respective streaks in all competitions (includes regular season, playoffs and CONCACAF Champions League): Houston Dynamo (2011‐2013) – 36 games ‐ 26 wins‐0 losses‐10 draws – 70 Goals For, 25 Goals Against Real Salt Lake (2009‐11) – 34 games – 25 wins‐0 losses‐9 draws – 73 Goals For, 18 Goals Against How the streak was built: Houston Dynamo ‐ 36 games: 30 regular season, 3 playoffs, 3 Champions League Real Salt Lake – 34 games: 27 regular season, 2 playoffs, 5 Champions League Opponents faced during streak: Houston Dynamo – 20 clubs – 17 MLS opponents* and three more in the Champions League: C.D. FAS (El Salvador), C.D. Olimpia (Honduras), and Club Santos Laguna (Mexico) Real Salt Lake – 18 clubs – 15 MLS opponents** and three more in the Champions League: Arabe Unido (Panama), Cruz Azul (Mexico) and Deportivo Saprissa (Costa Rica) *The Dynamo played every team in MLS during the streak except Chivas USA. ** Real Salt Lake defeated every other MLS team during its streak, except Portland, Vancouver and Montreal. Portland and Vancouver entered MLS in 2011 and didn’t play at Salt Lake before the streak ended. Montreal joined MLS in 2012. Most common victim: Houston Dynamo: D.C. United – The Dynamo hosted D.C. United four times during the streak (three times in regular season and once in the playoffs) and won all four games. Real Salt Lake: Colorado Rapids – Real Salt Lake faced its Rocky Mountain rivals four times at home during its streak and avoided a defeat to its rivals with a 2‐0‐2 mark. Now, a look at the regular season streak for each club: Houston Dynamo – 30 games: 21 wins‐0 losses‐9 draws – 57 Goals For, 23 Goals Against Real Salt Lake – 29 games: 20 wins‐0 losses‐9 draws – 57 Goals For, 13 Goals Against
Bruin sets Dynamo single‐season goals record: Will Bruin set a franchise record with 16 goals in all competitions in 2012. The forward scored four postseason goals after he led the Dynamo with 12 in the regular season. Bruin surpassed Brian Ching’s club record for goals in a season, including playoffs. Ching scored 14 goals in 2008 (13 in regular season and one in Champions League) and 14 goals in 2006 (11 in regular season and three in the playoffs).

Hall breaks former mentor Pat Onstad’s shutout record: Goalkeeper Tally Hall recorded 12 shutouts in the 2012 regular season, eclipsing former teammate Pat Onstad, who set an individual franchise record with 11 shutouts in 2007, when the club had a total of 13 clean sheets in 30 regular season games. Hall finished tied for second in the league in shutouts, trailing Jimmy Nielsen of Sporting Kansas City (15).
Brad Davis, midfield maestro: Midfielder Brad Davis recorded 12 assists in 2012, marking the fourth consecutive season the all‐star midfielder has tallied 12 or more assists. Davis had 16 assists in 2011 (career‐high) and 12 assists in 2010 and 2009. Davis finished with the fifth most assists in the league in 2012, trailing Graham Zusi (15).
Bruin matches goals mark for MLS second year professionals: Forward Will Bruin scored 12 regular season goals in 2012, matching the all‐time MLS record for second‐year professionals. That mark was set by Jeff Cunningham with Columbus in 1999 and later matched by Rodrigo Faria of the New York MetroStars in 2002.
Davis reaches 20 for second straight season: Brad Davis has reached a combined 20 goals and assists each of the last two years, with 8 goals (a career‐high) and 12 assists in 2012, after the midfielder reached 20 with 4 goals and 16 assists (another career‐high) in 2011. Davis’ achievement each of the last two years is remarkable because no other player in Dynamo history has ever recorded 20 combined goals and assists in a single regular season. Davis also has four of the best five combined totals in team history. Here are the highest combined totals in club history:
