Here is your thread for today’s match.
FC Dallas looks to recapture El Capitan and the Texas Derby in 2022 as they take on the Houston Dynamo tonight at PNC Stadium.
The two sides met earlier this year in Frisco with FC Dallas coming back from a goal down to win 2-1. Tsiki Ntsabeleng and Facundo Quigno helped seal the win for FC Dallas in the final minutes of the match.
FC Dallas notes:
Key player for FC Dallas – Matt Hedges – The defense has been…suspect at best lately. Our leader needs to step it up in a big way to bring home El Capitan again and three more points.
Summer slide – FC Dallas has won only one of its last seven matches (D2 L4) following a 1-1 draw against Inter Miami on Monday. Dallas has allowed 13 goals in those seven games after conceding an MLS-low eight goals after 11 matches this season.
