The Houston Dynamo continued their unbeaten home form (6-0-1) against a Whitecaps team that came in having won two consecutive road games. The 2-1 victory caps off a stretch of seven home games out of the first 10 matches to start the season.
Here are three things we learned from Friday night’s win:
1. The defense was the key to victory
As a group, they’ve been improving game by game, collecting two shutouts in the last two home matches. The shutout eluded them in this game but they contained a good road team and one that, unlike the last two opponents to come to BBVA Compass Stadium, came in with the advantage of a week’s preparation.
