Last weekend, the Houston Dynamo and Sporting Kansas City played a rough, yellow-card-filled 90-minutes. Dynamo left town with a six-game MLS winless streak against the steadily improving Kansas City side, and that poor run of form only continued here.
In MLS, the Dynamo last beat Sporting KC in 2017. But on this occasion, they never even came close to victory. By the 26th minute, the home team were 2-0 up and in complete control and they never looked back.
Roger Espinoza sent a lazy left-footed lob into the back of the net with Dynamo goalkeeper Marko Maric out of position for SKC’s second goal.
