VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Defender DaMarcus Beasley scored in the 20th minute to help the Houston Dynamo tie the Vancouver Whitecaps 1-1 on Saturday.
With assistant coaches Wade Barrett, Paul Caffrey and Paul Rogers directing the team following head coach Owen Coyle's resignation Wednesday, the Dynamo improved to 3-7-3 overall and 0-6-1 on the road.
Houston opened the scoring on a pretty pass from midfielder Alex. The Brazilian slipped a ball between two defenders to an open Beasley. He then beat goalkeeper David Ousted for his first goal of the season.
