The Houston Dynamo defeated the San Jose Earthquakes 2-0 at BBVA Compass Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Here are three points that stood out from Saturday’s match:
1. Cabrera’s not afraid to mix things up
Dynamo head coach Wilmer Cabrera featured his seventh different starting lineup in as many games, but there was one glaring distinction with this particular one. The Dynamo came out in a 4-4-2 formation for the first time this season, and they performed well.
A big reason for the changes in the lineup was due to the injury bug going around the locker room this season.
