Around SBN: Ray Allen Fighting Age, Injury And His New Role

Game Thread: Dynamo v FC Dallas (2011 - Match 13)

Gamethread_fcdallas_medium

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.

I agree

Let some guys rest and some others prove themselves. That type of competitiveness internally adds to the rivalry match.

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.

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

The clearly audible “get a hair cut Shea” over the TV was awesome.

2-1 Dallas

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

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

by Gribbs on May 28, 2011 9:26 PM CDT reply actions  

I’ll take it considering the first 86 minutes.
