The Philadelphia Union had high hopes going into the match, but after going down by two goals in the first half, the team was unable to get back into the match.
A Aaron Trusty own goal in the 65th minute to pretty much end the chances for Philadelphia, as the Houston Dynamo took a 3-0 lead.
Jay Simpson was brought on for Corey Burke in the 68th minute, and David Accam was brought on in the 78th minute for Borek Dockal, but neither sub provided the spark that the club needed.
