Last week was not kind to the Houston Dynamo as they went on a difficult road trip first to face the Philadelphia Union and then to play MLS newcomer Atlanta United FC. The Dynamo, being the team they are this year, did not do well in either venture as they gave up 6 goals and only scoring 1 themselves which came from the penalty spot as they lost both. Losing on the road has become an unfortunate theme as they’ve lost all 5 of their games away from Houston. More perplexing is the difference in form when they are at home where they’ve been undefeated.
