Sam Junqua’s stoppage time winner sends Dynamo to Open Cup Round of 32
Two own goals. A saved penalty. A stoppage time winner from the left back. The magic of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. The Houston Dynamo began their quest for a second Lamar Hunt US Open Cup on Tuesday night at PNC Stadium against the Rio Grande Valley FC Toros. The teams traded jabs before Sam Junwua struck the decisive blow in second half stoppage time.
Midfielder Brooklyn Raines and winger Thiago got their first starts for the senior team after both starting for Houston Dynamo 2 on Saturday. Zeca and Thor Ulfarsson also got starts in a game where most starters were rested.
