The unbeaten run is over at six games. The Houston Dynamo were defeated 1-2 by the Vancouver Whitecaps in their latest fixture as a combination of factors led to the club’s loss in British Columbia.
Head Coach Wilmer Cabrera, a week after making better lineup decisions, opted to rest several players due to the volume of games over the course of the next week. That meant keeping Ricardo Clark, Cubo Torres, and Vicente Sanchez at home which definitely had some impact on how this game played out. Ricardo Clark in particular was missed as his partnership with Juan David Cabezas has gifted players like Alex and our forward group more time up top because they don’t have to play as much on the defensive side of the ball.
