FC Dallas snapped their streak of poor form last night with the help of two own goals from the Seattle Sounders. Despite a lengthy weather delay and the absences of Paxton Pomykal and Edwin Cerrillo FCD grabbed three points for the first time since April 20th against Atlanta United.
Innovation or Necessity?
Luchi abandoned his traditional 4-3-3 in favor of a more Pareja-esque 4-2-3-1. Dallas had been struggling to make their three-man midfield work without Pomykal as he’s been away with international duty. Luchi changing formations is slightly surprising.
