It was a disappointing evening for the Houston Dynamo who led for most of their final game of Group F against the LA Galaxy in the MLS is Back tournament. The familiar “sitting deep” on a lead is a tactic Houston fans know well, and they know it often doesn’t end well. A stoppage time equalizer was enough by the Galaxy to see both sides out of the tournament.
The LA Galaxy began the match by utilizing a higher press which provided Houston some room to counter if they were able to work things out of the back.
