Now that the Houston Dynamo have parted ways with Head Coach Owen Coyle the team finds itself in a position it has never been in before: playing a match without a head coach. Assistant Coach Wade Barrett, Sports Performance Director Paul Caffrey, and Goalkeeper Coach Paul Rogers will split management responsibilities until the front office provides an official interim manager or replacement.
The team now makes its way back to Vancouver, BC to face the Whitecaps. The Dynamo currently sit in last place in Western Conference with the 2nd worst overall record in Major League Soccer while Vancouver holds 9 points more and is in 4th place in the West.
