Houston Dynamo head coach Wilmer Cabrera didn’t say the Houston Dynamo gave up on the offense-oriented 4-3-3 they’ve used to start this season. In his post-game conference, Cabrera explained several reasons for changing the formation at least for this game on Saturday, April 22.
I wanted to help the back four to be more protected. We gave Alex a little bit more freedom. At some points, he was another forward. We tried to be more balanced. The game was at 3 o’clock. It was hot. Having that balance helped us to save more energy.
