FC Dallas came into tonight’s match looking to break a nine-match winless streak, but Minnesota United — aiming for its first back-to-back wins of the season following Saturday’s 3-2 win over Montreal — had other ideas. With a goal and two assists for Christian Ramirez, a textbook match-winning volley by Miguel Ibarra and a clutch penalty save by Bobby Shuttleworth to preserve a lead, the Loons handed Dallas a big 4-1 loss and their fans a big home win.
“I think small margins in games change the way that the course of the game,” said Head Coach Adrian Heath.
