The Houston Dynamo are a dramatically different team at home than on the road. Wednesday’s 5-1 destruction of Real Salt Lake at BBVA Compass Stadium is just the latest evidence of that.
All seven of the Dynamo’s wins this year have come at home. But Houston doesn’t just win at home, they put on a show. The five goals they scored on Wednesday night marked the third time in eight home games that the Dynamo have scored four or more goals. Of Houston’s 27 goals this year, 24 have come at home.
Wednesday’s three points also propelled the Orange to the top of the Western Conference standings, but the Dynamo aren’t making a big deal out of that.
