Sounders vs. Houston Dynamo: Three more questions
With no goals in leg one the Houston Dynamo almost certainly need to change their approach in leg two. Down two more players due to suspension Wilmer Cabrera needs depth to step up. The Seattle Sounders are also down a starter, though the continued break may mean they get other talent back.
The 7:30 PM Thursday night match (ESPN) has one team that could approach the game on cruise control, and another that may need to respond with frenetic energy early. Seattle’s 2-nil lead. Those two road goals means that any win, any draw, any one-goal loss would put the Sounders into the MLS Cup. A Houston win of 2-0 forces extra time. Any other multi-goal win by the Dynamo puts them in their third Cup.
