The brief period of rest is over for the Houston Dynamo as players that had been away on international duty have now returned to practice and look to face the New York Red Bulls at home today. While the Dynamo had the benefit of a week’s rest, the Red Bulls had no such fortune. However, Dynamo standout Romell Quioto was unfortunately injured during his time with the Honduran national side and will miss between two and four weeks so the rest period wasn’t all good.
In the Dynamo’s last match at Portland they saw a lead taken just before halftime evaporate into a 4-2 loss in their first road game of the season.
