The loss drops the Dynamo to a 0-6-1 record in Vancouver and 3-22-12 all-time in matches played on artificial turf. Here are three things we learned from the loss:
1. Resting up for the home stretch
Alberth Elis was not eligible for this match due to yellow card accumulation and, before the match, we learned that Erick Torres, Vicente Sánchez and Ricardo Clark did not travel with the team to Vancouver.
