Houston Dynamo vs Sporting Kansas City, US Open Cup Final Score: Dynamo down defending Open Cup Champs, move on to Quarter Finals

The Dynamo got a much needed win against their MLS rival Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday night.

The Dynamo were the first to get on the board as Mauro Manotas scored his second Open Cup goal. Abdoulie Mansally crossed the ball to Manotas who slid in the box to get to the ball. Manotas alone in the box was able to score a goal and a 1-0 lead.

SKC almost drew level in the 26th minute. Deigo Rubio hit the ball to the near post but Joe Willis made an amazing kick save to prevent the ball from finding its way into goal.
