Dynamo's Erick Torres keeping his head down despite early-season success
Erick ‘Cubo’ Torres is making up for lost time so far in the 2017 MLS season.
After not scoring in two years with the Houston Dynamo, the Mexican international now has six goals in four games this season, including Saturday’s hat-trick which propelled the Dynamo past the New York Red Bulls, 4-1. It marked Torres’ first career hat-trick and the seventh in Dynamo club history. It also made him the first player in club history to score in four consecutive games.
As an added bonus, Torres is now the leading goal scorer in the 2017 MLS season.
“I feel happy. I feel happy for my team," said Torres. "It’s my first hat-trick in my life and we need to continue working. We have 29 games left."
