Game Thread: Dynamo v FC Dallas (2011 - Match 13)
Houston Dynamo (3-4-5, 14 pts.) vs. FC Dallas (6-3-3, 21 pts.)
Robertson Stadium - Houston, TX - 7:30pm CT
It's the first meeting on the year between the the 1-45 rivals as Houston and FC Dallas meet tonight at Robertson Stadium. While the Dynamo are stuck in neutral, struggling to create on the attack, FC Dallas has been on fire since the season ending injury to David Ferreira. To say I'm not expecting 90 minutes of beautiful soccer is likely an understatement. The Dynamo need a good result though to get some confidence back and prepare for a run in June missing some key players.

glad sarkodie taylor and chewy are getting the start
….but I don’t know if I like 3/4 of our backline getting replaced with guys who haven’t been playing much on a night we are desperate for a win. Freeman and Boswell have both struggled a little lately. Still a pretty drastic change. Hopefully Watson and sarkodie give our attack a little more balance.

Kinnear resting guys ahead of the Gold Cup, our defense will be thin for a few weeks. Make sense.

Nothing like an “accidental” kick to the face when you were the only one in position to even make a play of a ball. Yikes.

Loving this match so far
Free kick after free kick…advantage = Houston =D
Sarkodie got obliterated, Vaughn completely ignored it. He's pathetic.

Weakest foul all game is the yellow card.

Yeah seriously
Foul on Hainault could have been a red (okay that’s me exaggerating just a touch) or at least a yellow.
Not a chance
We don’t spend enough on players or refs….
Also FIFA refs suffer from the same problems these refs do..just less frequently
So, not much of an improvement for the cost.
We need to produce some better refs then. That might be something worth spending money on.
USSF won't spend any money on better referees, they barely fund anything as it is

99% chance...no
FIFA and USSF need drastic internal improvements
I might stop caring about FIFA as a body if Blatter is still president.
It’s bad enough that the two canadates were recently in front of an ethics committee.
Cameron is looking sharper than he has all season
in my opinion
His knee clearly took a hit
Just shaken up a bit I think
The clearly audible “get a hair cut Shea” over the TV was awesome.

Same fucking shit. Different fucking day. Everyone standing fucking still on a set piece.

70" Goal FCD 2-1 Dynamo
Off a Corner. And he had a nice save earlier.
This is so frustrating

If we can somehow pull this game out...
We will take so much confidence into the summer….A point is great all things considered…but a win…wow
I’ll take it considering the first 86 minutes.
