Houston Dynamo FC hoped to break two streaks in their trip to face the Seattle Sounders: 1) to finally get a win in Seattle and 2) to snap their streak of ties. The Dynamo only managed the second objective, but in a 2-0 loss at Lumen Field. Despite an outstanding first half performance, poor personnel changes along with a few mistakes defending led to the loss.
The home side came out aggressive and looked to play primarily through the center, but the Dynamo defense did well to prevent penetrating passes becoming quality opportunities on goal.
