The Houston Dynamo got their season kicked off at BBVA Stadium last Friday night with a 2-1 win over the visiting San Jose Earthquakes. The Dynamo looked in control for much of the game, but a wonder goal kept the ‘Quakes in it and made for a nail biting finish. Still, three points are three points and here are my three takeaways from Friday night’s opener.
I think the second half was much better than the first and the energy was better and we created more chances and, you know at the end, we were close to tying it. But, overall I think we wanted to start off the season with with the win and start off with a lot of energy and credit to Houston, they played well in the first half and, and they outplayed us a bit and it took us a little bit to get into the game.
