The Dynamo winless streak continues as the team fell to the Portland Timbers on the road despite holding a 2-0 lead at half time. The Dynamo sat in the 2nd half too often and allowed Portland back to win it 3-2 in controversial fashion thanks to a dubious penalty decision.
Quick Thoughts:
1) The first half was very close to a perfect performance after Andrew Wenger’s goal opened things up. The team exuded confidence on the road and found it easy to break Portland down utilizing a high pressing style of play. Collen Warner helped Alex and Ricardo Clark pressure higher up the field and that took the ball away from Portland’s playmakers halting many problems for our defense before they started.
