What a start, what a finish. In the end, El Capitán will stay in Houston for the time being after a third consecutive draw in the Texas Derby.

Two previous draws in the rivalry and a recent FC Dallas slump meant that Houston had plenty of reason to gun for three points, even with Wilmer Cabrera’s squad rotation. The Dynamo got off to a dream start on Wednesday through 37-year-old Vicente Sánchez but needed a late rally to salvage a point on the road. The Uruguayan’s pressure produced a dreadful error from Dallas defender Matt Hedges and Cubo Torres was off to the races.
