Mauro Manotas scored two more goals and Cristian Maidana also scored for the second consecutive game as the Houston Dynamo defeated the Dynamo Academy Under-18s, 3-1, in a preseason scrimmage on Tuesday afternoon at Houston Sports Park.
The annual scrimmage included the preseason debut of Ricardo Clark, the 2015 Dynamo MVP and Players’ Player of the Year. Clark, entering his 13th professional season, played the first half after a lingering ailment kept him out of the first four preseason games. He played alongside David Rocha and Maidana in the center of midfield.
