There’s no time at the start of the MLS season for the Houston Dynamo to catch their breath, as they go right from a wild 3-3 Opening Day draw into a Texas Derby match against FC Dallas this Saturday at BBVA Compass Stadium (7:15 p.m.; TICKETS).
The Week 2 game is the earliest meeting between the Texas rivals, with only two previous matchups (2010 and 2013) coming in March.
“We will take direction from Owen [Coyle], they will guide us and we know how important that game is. It is a local derby and they are a good team with very good players,” Dynamo midfielder Cristian Maidana told the media after Sunday’s match.
