CURRENT DYNAMO VS. SOUNDERS FC (4-6-6)


MATCH PREVIEWMATCH INFORMATIONFollowing a 2-0 win over Houston in the first leg of the Western Conference Championship, Sounders FC returns home Thursday evening for the second leg on the Xbox Pitch at CenturyLink Field. A win or draw would see Seattle through to the 2017 MLS Cup Fi-nal, as would a loss by less than a two-goal margin. For Houston to advance on aggregate, the Dynamo would need to overcome Seattle’s two-goal advantage, or win by two goals while scoring at least three due to the away goals tiebreaker. A 2-0 Houston win on Thursday would force extra time (and penalty kicks if necessary).

Gustav Svensson and Will Bruin scored in the first leg for Seattle, helping Sounders FC to its first-ever win in Houston, while goal-keeper Tyler Miller recorded a shutout in a substitute performance for the injured Stefan Frei.

THIS WEEK VS. HOUSTON DYNAMO

SOUNDERS FC SOUNDBYTESHead Coach Brian Schmetzer:

On Tyler Miller stepping in for Stefan Frei: “We have a mantra in this club: Next man steps forward. [Miller] did exactly that...He made the saves that he had to. I thought he had good command of his box, he got a couple crosses early. I thought he was very, very strong.”

Goalkeeper Tyler Miller:

On preparing for his first playoff start: “For me, the preparation is always the same. You have to be prepared at any moment and be ready. This was my moment. I felt like I was prepared for the game and I went out there and had a solid performance.”

Forward Will Bruin:

On playing and scoring against his former team: “For me, mentality is a big thing. I was ready to play, I was focused on it. I didn’t want to get overhyped because sometimes you think about too much, you can overanalyze. I wanted to keep it simple, connect my passes and get in good spots to score.”

SERIES NOTESIn the head-to-head matchups between Sounders FC and the Houston Dyna-mo, Sounders FC holds a 6-4-6 record in the regular season. Additionally, thetwo sides met in Seattle’s first-ever postseason appearance in 2009, which Houston won 1-0 on aggregate. Despite holding a 6-0-2 advantage at home in the regular season, Seattle earned its first-ever win in Houston across all competitions with a 2-0 shutout result in the first leg last week. In the Lone Star State, Houston has posted a 4-0-4 record against the Rave Green in regular-season action.

Houston topped Seattle in a season-opening contest at BBVA Compass Stadi-um in March before Seattle won 1-0 at CenturyLink Field in June. Last season, the Western Conference foes tied on three separate occasions.

DEMPSEY WINS MLS COMEBACK POYMajor League Soccer announced on November 15 that Sounders FC forward Clint Dempsey has been named 2017 MLS Comeback Player of the Year. Dempsey led Sounders FC with 12 regular season goals to go along with five assists in 2017 after being sidelined with an irregular heartbeat diagnosis in August of last season, forcing him to miss the club’s 2016 MLS Cup run. Dempsey edged Columbus’ Federico Higuaín and Houston’s Erick Torres for the award, which honors an MLS player who has overcome injuries and/or ad-versity in order to achieve success during the 2017 regular season. Dempsey is the second Sounders FC player to win the award after Eddie Johnson in 2012.

After being diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat in August of 2016, sidelining him for Seattle’s MLS Cup run and putting his professional future in question, Dempsey returned to action with Sounders FC in the 2017 preseason. He went on to lead the Rave Green with 12 goals to go along with five assists in 29 appearances (25 starts) this season, and his 46 regular-season goals for Seattle are just one goal shy of the Sounders FC all-time club scoring record held by Fredy Montero. In the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs, Dempsey has already added two more goals to his tally this season, scoring a brace against Vancou-ver to seal semifinal-round victory on November 2.

INTERNATIONAL SOUNDERS• Sounders FC midfielder Gustav Svensson came off the bench in both legs of Sweden’s UEFA playoff, helping his side to a 1-0 aggregate victory over four-time FIFA World Cup champion Italy. Svensson was a first-half injury sub, logging 72 minutes in a World Cup-clinching 0-0 draw in the second leg on November 13. After finishing second in Group A, Sweden drew a matchup with Italy in a blind draw for its matchup in the UEFA playoff.

• Svensson becomes the third Seattle player to help his national team advance to Russia. Nico Lodeiro (Uruguay) and Román Torres (Panama) previously qualified for Russia out of CONMEBOL and CONCACAF qualifying, respec-tively.

• Defender Nouhou made his full international debut for Cameroon on Novem-ber 11. Nouhou, who made 19 appearances in his first MLS season, registered six tackles and two interceptions over 90 minutes against Zambia.

• Defender Román Torres traveled down to Panama City following the second leg of the Western Conference Semifinals to take part in the 114th anniversary of Panama’s independence from Colombia. At those celebrations, Panamani-an President Juan Carlos Varela presented Torres with the national flag and the keys to Panama City in celebration of his goal that sent Panama through to the World Cup. Torres re-joined Sounders FC following the celebrations and skipped Panama’s friendlies against Iran and Wales in order to train with Seattle ahead of the Western Conference Championship.

SEATTLE NOW TOP SIDE SINCE ‘09After winning three of its last four regular-season games, Sounders FC now has the most points earned in MLS since joining the league in 2009. After sitting in the second spot for years, Brian Schmetzer’s club is up to 482 points (137-90-71) since 2009, surpassing the Galaxy’s 477 (131-83-84). The New York Red Bulls, Real Salt Lake and FC Dallas round out the top five for the most successful sides in MLS since Sounders FC has been in the league.

In addition to the standout results in the regular season, Sounders FC has six major trophies since joining the MLS, including one MLS Cup (2016), one Supporters’ Shield (2014) and four Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups (2009, 2010, 2011, 2014). Seattle has also advanced to the Scotiabank CONCACAF Cham-pions League Knockout Round on three occasions (2011-2012, 2012-2013, 2015-2016).

2017 AUDI MLS CUP PLAYOFFS

LEG ONE RECAPGustav Svensson and Will Bruin scored first-half goals as Seattle Sounders FC earned a 2-0 win over the Houston Dynamo in the first leg of the Western Conference Championship last Tuesday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. Tyler Miller, who started in goal for the injured Stefan Frei, recorded a shutout in his first appearance in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs to extend Sounders FC’s current record postseason shutout streak to 557 minutes.

Seattle got off the blocks with a crucial away goal through Svensson, as the Swede rose to meet a Nicolás Lodeiro corner-kick in the 11th minute of play. Fresh off international duty - where he played a key role in Sweden’s two-match UEFA series with Italy to secure FIFA World Cup qualification - Svens-son bagged his second strike of the 2017 MLS campaign to secure a critical away goal for the Rave Green. Svensson last scored on July 19 versus D.C. United, netting an equalizer in a memorable 4-3 comeback win. Seattle’s pressure continued to mount in the first half, resulting in another goal-scoring opportunity in the 27th minute, as Joevin Jones won a penalty after being dragged down by Houston defender Jalil Anibaba. Due to the infraction, the former Sounder was issued a red card by referee Chris Penso due to denial of an obvious goal-scoring opportunity. However, Joe Willis was able to bail his side out of trouble, as the Dynamo netminder dove to his left and thwarted Lodeiro’s spot-kick to keep the score at 1-0. However, with Houston set to the play the remainder of the contest with 10 men, the Rave Green pressed their advantage. Bruin bagged Seattle’s second strike in the 42nd minute, with the former Dynamo forward burying a perfectly-placed header past a frozen Willis to make the score 2-0. Jones provided the service on the goal, marking Bruin’s first postseason strike for the Rave Green on the heels of his 11-goal regular season. Before signing with Seattle prior to the 2017 campaign, Bruin led Houston’s forward line from 2011 through 2016.

FLASHBACK: 2009 CONFERENCE SEMISThe 2017 Western Conference Championship marks the second time Sound-ers FC and the Houston Dynamo have met in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs, with the two sides previously playing in the 2009 Western Conference Semifinals. It was the first postseason action in Seattle’s MLS history, with the club coming off of an impressive inaugural campaign in 2009, finishing 12-7-11 and shatter-ing league attendance records in the process. Featuring 2009 MLS Newcomer of the Year Fredy Montero, Best XI selection Freddie Ljungberg and rookie sensation Steve Zakuani, Seattle failed to regis-ter a goal across two legs and ended up falling in 1-0 on aggregate, including extra time in the second leg. Goalkeeper Kasey Keller held the Dynamo score-less for 186 minutes before Brian Ching scored in the extra time of the second leg to push Houston through.

HEAD COACH BRIAN SCHMETZERAfter leading Sounders FC to one of the most improb-able comebacks in MLS history, Brian Schmetzer was named the club’s second-ever Head Coach on Novem-ber 2, 2016. Upon assuming the interim manager role on July 26, 2016 following the departure of Sigi Schmid, Seattle sat in ninth place in the Western Conference with a 6-12-2 record. Under Schmetzer, Sounders FC finished the season with an 8-2-4 record and a fourth-place finish, becoming the first team in MLS history to make the MLS Cup Playoffs after having 20 or fewer points through the first 20 matches of the season. He

is the first coach in MLS history to lead his team to the MLS Cup title after assuming the Head Coach position midseason.

A longtime Sounders FC assistant and former USL Sounders manager, Schmetzer entered his eighth season as Top Assistant Coach in 2016, a position he retained since December 22, 2008. He is one of the Puget Sound soccer community’s most recognizable and respected figures after playing and coaching for the region’s top professional franchises since 1980.

Schmetzer served seven seasons as the Head Coach of the Sounders’ United Soccer League’s First Division club from 2002-2008 before making the jump to MLS. He guided Seattle to USL-1 championships in 2005 and 2007, and Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup semifinal advancements in 2007 and 2008.

Schmetzer has 14 years of coaching experience and a 15-year background playing at the professional level. He was a member of six championship teams during that span. In addition to the two USL championships, his teams also twice won the Commissioner’s Cup for the league’s best record (2002, 2007), while also qualifying for the playoffs six of seven years. He was chosen USL-1 Coach of the Year in 2002 after going 23-4-1. The Sounders were league runners-up in 2004. His overall regular season record in the USL era was 100-57-41.

Previously, he was assistant to former United States National Team defender Fernando Clavijo with the Seattle SeaDogs from 1996-1997. Seattle won the Continental Indoor Soccer League title in 1997.

A Seattle native, Schmetzer was coached by his father, Walt, as a youth. His team won seven out of 10 state youth championships. He signed with the

Sounders’ North American Soccer League franchise following his graduation from Seattle’s Nathan Hale High School in 1980. He played three seasons as a midfield-er for Seattle before going to Tulsa for the final NASL season in 1984.

Schmetzer signed with the San Diego Sockers in 1984 and played seven seasons in the Major Indoor Soccer League with San Diego (1984-1988), Tacoma (1988-1990) and St. Louis (1990-1991). He was a member of San Diego’s MISL cham-pionship teams in 1985, 1986 and 1988. He returned to Seattle for the Sounders’ inaugural A-League season in 1994 before completing his playing career with the SeaDogs from 1995-1996.

In 1985, Schmetzer played on loan to FC Seattle, scoring twice in a 2-1 friendly win over Brazil’s Santos. While with Tacoma and FC Seattle, Schmetzer’s teammates included younger brothers Andy and Walter.

Schmetzer and his wife Kristine have six children between them.

HOUSTON DYNAMO (13-10-11; 2-1-1) at SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC (14-9-11; 2-0-1)Thursday, November 30, 2017 · 9:30 p.m. CST · Qwest Field · Seattle, Washington

DYNAMO HEAD TO SEATTLE NEEDING A WIN TO MOVE ON

The Houston Dynamo visit Seattle on Thursday night with their backs pressed firmly against the wall. Trail-ing 2-0 in the two-leg series, the Dynamo must win by at least two goals to give themselves a chance to capture their fifth conference title in club history.

While the task is a difficult one, it is not insurmountable. Houston have won by two or more goals nine times this season, most recently when they posted a 3-0 win over Chicago on Decision Day. Historically, the Dynamo have played well in the postseason when they've needed a result in the second leg of a series to advance. In six such situations, the club is 5-1 in the second leg, including a 2-0 mark in games where they had to have a win to move on.

Houston can also draw strength from their recent road form, including a 2-1 win at top-seeded Portland in the second leg of the Western Conference Semifinal series on Oct. 30. Dating back to July 22, the Dynamo have picked up positive results in seven of their last nine away matches.

To get the win on Thursday, Houston will need their high-powered attacking corps to come up big. Despite missing forward Alberth Elis, who is suspended due to yellow card accumulation, Houston can still rely on forwards Erick Torres (club-record 14 goals this season), Mauro Manotas (11 total goals) and Romell Quioto (7 goals, 3 assists), along with playmakers Alex (10 assists), Vicente Sanchez (2 goals, 5 assists) and Tomas Martinez (2 goals). That unit will have to break down a Seattle defense that has not conceded a goal in its last 452 minutes dating back to Oct. 1 at Philadelphia.

Defensively, Houston will once again need to reshuffle the back line after right back Jalil Anibaba was sent off in the first leg of the series. The one constant in the Houston back line all year has been center back Adolfo Machado, who has started and played every minute of all but one game this season - and that game he missed came the day after he played all 90 minutes for the Panamanian national team to help his country secure its first-ever World Cup berth. Machado and left back DaMarcus Beasley, along with fellow defenders Philippe Senderos, Leonardo and Dylan Remick, will be tasked with shutting down a high-powered Seattle attack led by former Dynamo forward Will Bruin, U.S. Men's National Team star Clint Dempsey and Uruguay international Nicolas Lodeiro.

If the match ends 2-0 to Houston, it'll go to extra time and possibly on to penalties. If so, Houston can take comfort in the knowledge that goalkeeper Joe Willis has saved both penalties he's faced in his postseason career.

THE LAST GAME

HOUSTON (Tuesday, Nov. 21, 2017) – The Houston Dynamo fell to Seattle Sounders FC 2-0 on Tuesday night in front of a sellout crowd of 22,661 fans at BBVA Compass Stadium.

Seattle broke through first in the 11th minute off a corner from captain Nicolás Lodeiro. Midfielder Gustav Svennson headed the corner home, driving it into the lower right corner of the net and past a diving effort from Dynamo goalkeeper Joe Willis.

The Sounders doubled their lead in the 42nd minute after Seattle midfield-er Joevin Jones found Will Bruin at the edge of the box and his header beat the Dynamo goalkeeper at the top corner of the far post.

The Dynamo went down a man in the 28th minute when defender Jalil An-ibaba was sent off for a foul on Jones inside the penalty area. Willis came up with a massive save when he stopped Lodeiro’s penalty kick to keep the game at 1-0.

The Dynamo created the first dangerous chance of the night within the first minute when forward Mauro Manotas earned a corner kick and the ensuing corner was headed just over the crossbar by forward Alberth Elis.

Houston generated the first scoring opportunity of the second half in the 51st minute after Martinez found Manotas inside the box, but his shot went wide of the top corner of the right post.

Elis forced a save from Tyler Miller in the 73rd minute with a shot to the near post that was handled inside the six yard box.

Seattle generated the final scoring opportunity of the game as second-half substitute Victor Rodriguez’ strike bounced off the crossbar past a lunging Willis.

HEAD COACH COMPARISON

HOUSTON DYNAMO HEAD COACH WILMER CABRERA

Wilmer Cabrera was named head coach of the Houston Dynamo on Octo-ber 28, 2016. Cabrera was previously the first head coach the Rio Grande Valley FC Toros, the Dynamo's hybrid USL affiliate. He also served time as a head coach and assistant coach in Major League Soccer and head coach of the United States Under-17 Boys National Team.

A native of Colombia, Cabrera is bilingual in English and Spanish and was the first Latin American head coach at the helm of a U.S. national team. He served as head coach of the United States Under-17 Boys National Team from October 2007 to January 2012 and compiled a 36-29-15 record, guid-ing the U.S. U-17s through two U-17 World Cup qualifying cycles ahead of the 2009 and 2011 FIFA U-17 FIFA World Cups, including progression to the Round of 16 at both tournaments. Cabrera also led his squad to a first-place finish at the 2011 CONCACAF U-17 Championship.

Cabrera began his MLS coaching career as assistant under current FC Dallas head coach Oscar Pareja for two seasons with the Colorado Rapids (2012-13) before he was head coach of Chivas USA in 2014, the club’s final season in MLS.

As the first head coach of Rio Grande Valley FC, Cabrera guided the expan-sion club to a record of 14-7-9 and second-place finish in the USL’s Western Conference. RGV FC had the best goal difference – plus 23 – in the Western Conference, and allowed just 24 goals, second-fewest in the 29-team USL, and fewest in the West. The Toros also led the conference with 16 shutouts and set a USL-record with a streak of 760 minutes without conceding a goal in July and August.

As a player, the former defender made 48 appearances for the Colombia National Team, including three starts at the 1998 FIFA World Cup, inclusion on the roster at the 1990 FIFA World Cup, and a role at four Copa America tournaments (1989, ’91, ’95 and ’97). His 20-year professional playing ca-reer began at age 17 with Independiente Sante Fe in Colombia and includ-ed spells in Argentina and Costa Rica before a final stop in the United States with the Long Island Rough Riders.

Cabrera’s career in youth development began as an assistant coach with Suffolk (New York) Community College followed by a stint as coach with the BW Gottschee Academy in New York City.

SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC HEAD COACHBRIAN SCHMETZER

After leading Sounders FC to one of the most improbable comebacks in MLS history, Brian Schmetzer was named the club’s second-ever Head Coach on November 2, 2016. Upon assuming the interim manager role on July 26, 2016 following the departure of Sigi Schmid, Seattle sat in ninth place in the Western Conference with a 6-12-2 record. Under Schmetzer, Sounders FC finished the season with an 8-2-4 record and a fourth-place finish, becoming the first team in MLS history to make the MLS Cup Playoffs after having 20 or fewer points through the first 20 matches of the season.

A longtime Sounders FC assistant and former USL Sounders manager, Schmetzer entered his eighth season as Top Assistant Coach in 2016, a po-sition he retained since December 22, 2008. He is one of the Puget Sound soccer community’s most recognizable and respected figures after playing and coaching for the region’s top professional franchises since 1980.

Schmetzer served seven seasons as the Head Coach of the Sounders’ Unit-ed Soccer League’s First Division club from 2002-2008 before making the jump to MLS. He guided Seattle to USL-1 championships in 2005 and 2007, and Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup semifinal advancements in 2007 and 2008.

Schmetzer has 14 years of coaching experience and a 15-year background playing at the professional level. He was a member of six championship teams during that span. In addition to the two USL championships, his teams also twice won the Commissioner’s Cup for the league’s best record (2002, 2007), while also qualifying for the playoffs six of seven years. He was chosen USL-1 Coach of the Year in 2002 after going 23-4-1. The Sound-ers were league runners-up in 2004. His overall regular season record in the USL era was 100-57-41.

Previously, he was assistant to former United States National Team defend-er Fernando Clavijo with the Seattle SeaDogs from 1996-1997. Seattle won the Continental Indoor Soccer League title in 1997.

Schmetzer and his wife Kristine have six children between them.

LAST GAME AT SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC

HOUSTON (Sunday, June 4, 2017) – The Houston Dynamo remain in search of their first victory away from home after a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Seattle Sounders FC in front of 40,258 fans at CenturyLink Field in Seattle.

Former Dynamo forward Will Bruin scored the game-winning goal with a powerful header off of a cross from midfielder Cristian Roldan in the 69th minute. The goal came late in a game where Seattle controlled possession, but Houston was able to create the more dangerous chances thanks in part to a resolute Dynamo defense that blocked several Sounders chances.

Bruin’s goal was Seattle’s first on-target shot after more than an hour of play. The Dynamo back line combined to clear 22 balls from danger and block another three shots in the game, and goalkeeper Tyler Deric claimed two more crosses before a Sounders player could get a touch to them.

Despite conceding more than 65 percent of possession, Houston had three shots on goal to Seattle’s two. The Dynamo created the first dangerous chance in the 13th minute when forwards Erick Torres and Andrew Wenger combined for a give-and-go down the right side that put Torres in on goal. The Mexican international’s right-footed shot was saved by Seattle goal-keeper Stefan Frei to keep the game scoreless.

Deric came up with a big play of his own in the 17th minute when Seattle defender Joevin Jones lofted a cross that drifted toward the goal and was headed toward the upper right corner if Deric didn’t intervene with a diving effort to palm it away.

Dynamo forward Mauro Manotas tried his luck with a bold 30-yard shot from the left side of the box, but Frei was well positioned to catch the shot and avoid further danger.

Late in the game, Houston created a pair of dangerous chances. Forward Alberth Elis, a second-half substitute for Torres, got free off a pass from Manotas in the 87th minute, but his left-footed effort dragged wide of the far post. Four minutes later, just after the clock struck 90 minutes, Manotas got free inside the area, but his low right-footed blast was smothered by Frei to snuff out the danger.

A LOOK BACK AT OPENING DAY

HOUSTON (Saturday, March 4, 2017) – The Houston Dynamo opened the 2017 season with a 2-1 victory over defending MLS Cup Champions Seattle Sounders FC at BBVA Compass Stadium.

Forward Erick Torres scored the first Dynamo goal of the season and his first goal for the club in the 20th minute. The forward won a free kick after he suffered a foul outside the box. Torres’ free kick beat Seattle goalkeeper Stefan Frei at the far post for the opening goal of the game.

Forward Romell Quioto doubled the lead in the 42nd minute with a 20-yard strike that curled inside the upper corner of the far post. The scoring opportunity began with midfielder Alex, who won the ball at midfield and found the forward in space for his first goal with the club.

Seattle prevented Dynamo goalkeeper Tyler Deric’s 16th club shutout in the 58th minute after he deflected a shot from defender Joevin Jones. The rebound fell to forward Clint Dempsey who beat the goalkeeper at the near post.

Houston pressed from the opening whistle and nearly scored in the fourth minute after a cross from Quito found forward Alberth Elis, but his first-touch shot was off target.

Seattle’s best opportunity of the first half came in the 25th minute when Jones went down the left flank. His cross skipped across the six-yard box, but forwards Jordan Morris and Dempsey were unable to make contact. Dynamo defender DaMarcus Beasley cleared the ball resulting in a Seattle corner kick.

Seattle flirted with the equalizer in 73rd minute after Jones found midfield-er Nicolas Lodeiro inside the box. Lodeiro's shot went over the cross the bar to quell Seattle’s momentum. The Sounders had one final push in the third minute of extra time, but defender Roman Torres' shot skied over the bar just beore the final whistle blew.

WIN BY 2? BEEN THERE, DONE THAT

Houston goes into Thursday's game needing a win by at least two goals in order to give themselves a chance to move on to the MLS Cup Final. While certainly not easy, it's certainly doable for a Dynamo attack that produced the fifth-most goals this season.

Houston won by two or more goals on nine occasions this season, most recently in a 3-0 win over Chicago on Decision Day. To do so again would mean piercing a Seattle defense that hasn't conceded in five games, but this Houston attack has proven more than capable so far this season.

HOUSTON TEAMS WHEN FACING ELIMINATION IN PLAYOFFS THIS SEASON

REALLY, GET 3. DONE THAT, TOO

To really feel good about their chances of making it to MLS Cup, the Dyna-mo need to score three or more goals on Thursday night. A two-goal win in which they score three or more would guarantee them a spot in the Final, whereas a 2-0 win would force extra time and, potentially, penalty kicks.

Houston put three or more on the board 10 times this year, good for third-most in the league behind Toronto FC (13 times) and Atlanta United FC (12 times). The Dynamo went 8-0-2 in those games, and all eight wins were by margins of at least two goals.

Notably, in six of those 10 games, the Dynamo scored within the first 10 minutes of the contest, and they broke through inside of 15 minutes in another. So don't miss the early stages of Thursday's game, as that could set the stage for a dramatic finish!

IF THIS GOES TO PENALTIES...

If Thursday's match ends regulation with the Dynamo up 2-0, it would go to extra time since the series would be tied 2-2 on aggregate and level on away goals.

A goal for Houston in extra time would force Seattle to play for the win, as a 3-3 draw at that point would send the Dynamo through on away goals. However, if the two 15-minute periods finished scoreless, we'd head to a penalty kick shootout to decide the series.

Here's a quick look at some of Houston's attacking players and their penalty kick history in MLS, along with that of goalkeeper Joe Willis.

Forward Erick Torres has taken the most penalties among Dynamo players, with XX in his career across all competitions. Midfielder Boniek Garcia and forward Vicente Sanchez are the only current Dynamo players to have tak-en a penalty in the playoffs. Garcia converted from the spot on Nov. 1, 2013 vs. Montreal and Sanchez saw his effort saved earlier this postseason vs. Sporting Kansas City on Oct. 26.

HOUSTON'S UNSUNG HERO

"What you do speaks so loudly, people rarely hear what you say."

That adage may have been written for Houston midfielder Eric Alexander. Perhaps the quietest player on the team off the field, Alexander has exert-ed a huge influence on his club on the pitch this season.

The Michigan native's play in many ways mirrors his personality - no frills, quiet and unassuming, yet steady and dependable. Alexander leads the team in passing accuracy, connecting on 86.67 percent of his passes. While the rest of his stats aren't gaudy, one does stand out:

The Dynamo are 10-3-3 this season when Alexander plays, including the playoffs, and are just 5-8-9 without him on the field. All of Houston's plus-12 goal differential this season (including playoffs) has been earned in games where Alexander was on the field.

HOUSTON'S TALIS-MEN

TALISMANnoun Pronunciation: tal·is·man Definition: 1 :an object held to act as a charm to avert evil and bring good fortune2 :something producing apparently magical or miraculous effects

It's commonplace in soccer for fans and reporters to use this term in refer-ence to a club's leading goal scorer, as goals often can appear magical and they frequently bring good fortune.

The 2017 Dynamo, rather than a single talismanic scorer, have leaned on a quartet of strikers. When it comes to generating wins, though, it's all about 21-year-old Colombian Mauro Manotas and 37-year-old Uruguayan Vicen-te Sanchez.

Manotas is tied for second on the team with 11 goals, including both regu-lar season and playoff action. Sanchez, meanwhile, has more goals and as-sists per 90 minutes (2.07) over the last three months of the regular season than any player in the league.

In the postseason, Manotas scored the winner in Houston's 2-1 win at Port-land in the Conference Semifinals.

All in all, the Dynamo are 6-0-4 when Manotas scoresand 3-0-3 when San-chez has either a goal or an assist.

BUILDING A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM

Last winter, Houston general manager Matt Jordan and head coach Wilmer Cabrera overhauled the Dynamo roster; and in so doing, made a point to bring in players who had championship experience.

The theory was that when you're trying to turn around a club that hasn't made the playoffs in three consecutive years, importing some guys who know how to win can help jump-start that process. And boy, did it ever.

The eight players added over the offseason brought a combined 19 league titles with them to the Dynamo. Not surprising the team learned how to win quickly!

HOUSTON STRONG SINCE HARVEY

Hurricane Harvey made landfall on the Texas coast on August 25 and, over the course of four days, dropped record amounts of rain on Southeast Tex-as, including as much as 51 inches in some parts of the Greater Houston area.

The Houston Dynamo had one game - Aug. 26 vs. Sporting Kansas City - postponed due to the hurricane and were forced to relocate to Dallas for several days to regain some sort of rhythm in their training schedule.

When they returned to play, they suffered their only home defeat of the year, a shocking 1-0 loss to cellar-dwelling Colorado, on Sept. 9, and fol-lowed that with another 1-0 loss at San Jose on Sept. 16.

Then a funny thing happened - they didn't lose again. Over the last six games of the regular season, the Dynamo went 3-0-3 to surge above the Playoff Line and ultimately earn the fourth seed in the Western Confer-ence. The hot streak has continued into the postseason as Houston has gone 2-0-1 in racing to the Western Conference Championship series.

H-TOWN IS ORANGE

Orange is the color of fall, especially in Houston this year. Not only are the Dynamo back in the postseason for the first time since 2013, but across Interstate 59, the Houston Astros are in the World Series for the second time in club history.

The Astros borrowed a page from the Dynamo playbook and launched a campaign to "Orange Out" the city of Houston as they started their post-season run. The Dynamo, with their club motto being "Forever Orange," quickly threw their support behind their neighbors.

So if you want to fit in around H-Town, just wear your Orange!

ALL-TIME HOUSTON SPORTS TITLES

The Houston Astros won the 2017 World Series on Wednesday night, giving Houston its first-ever baseball title and the first championship in profes-sional sports since the Houston Dynamo in 2007.

The Astros' title was the 11th by a professional sports franchise in the city of Houston. Interestingly, every title won by an H-Town team was followed up by a repeat championship the next year.

H-TOWN TEAMS ARE HOUSTON STRONG

It's a great time to be a sports fan in Houston right now. Every team in town is riding high, either competing in the playoffs or gunning for a playoff spot.

Wednesday night, the Houston Astros won the World Series for the first time in their history.

The Dynamo advanced through the Knockout Round of the Audi 2017 MLS Cup Playoffs and are a game away from the Western Conference Finals when they take the field on Sunday afternoon.

On the gridiron, the Houston Texans boast the NFL's highest-scoring offense ever since the emergence of first-round draft pick quarterback DeShaun Watson earlier this season, and are gunning for their third consecutive AFC South Division title.

Meanwhile, the Houston Rockets just opened their 2017-18 campaign and are off to a 15-4 start and the best record in the Western Conference under the leadership of last year's NBA Coach of the Year, Mike D'Antoni, and All-Star guards James Harden and Chris Paul.

Coming on the heels of the most damaging natural disaster in American history (in terms of property loss), the collective success of the local teams has helped the Houston community stay #HoustonStrong as we all work to recover from the effects of that storm.

JALIL ANIBABA - GOOD LUCK CHARM

Dynamo defender Jalil Anibaba is in his second season with the club, and he may have unknowingly won over legions of fans in H-Town this week when he revealed a unique aspect of his professional career.

Everywhere the California native has played in his Major League Soccer ca-reer, trophies have followed - for the other clubs in town, at least.

Anibaba was a member of the Chicago Fire when the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup in 2013. That offseason, he was traded to Seattle, and the Sea-hawks went on to win Super Bowl XLVIII following the 2014 season.

In 2015, Anibaba was traded to Sporting Kansas City, and the year ended with the Royals claiming their first World Series title in 30 years.

Now, with Anibaba playing in Houston, the Astros clinched the first World Series championship in the club's 56-year history. Sports fans all over Hous-ton, you've found your good luck charm!

HOUSTON'S IMPROVED AWAY FORM

One of the prevailing narratives surrounding the Houston Dynamo this sea-son was "the Dynamo are very strong at home but weak on the road." A 12-1-4 regular-season home mark compared to a 1-9-7 away record will do that.

However, a look at Houston's recent road form shows that the narrative may no longer be accurate. Houston has secured results in six of its last eight games away from home, including four of its last five road outings.

Needing a win by at least 2 goals on Thursday night to advance, the Dyna-mo can look to their recent road form for inspiration and confidence.

BACK WHERE WE BELONG

The Houston Dynamo are back in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2013, and a look at the club's history shows that the three-year hiatus from postseason play was the exception, rather than the rule, for Dynamo fans.

This year's postseason trip is the club's eighth in 12 years, and Thursday's game will be Houston's 33rd in postseason competition.

With their 1-0 win over Sporting Kansas City in the Knockout Round, the Dynamo passed the LA Galaxy for most playoff games played since 2006. A win on Thursday night would move Houston to within one of the Galaxy's wins total over the last 12 seasons as well.

WHEN IT'S ALL ON THE LINE

The Dynamo head into Thursday's second leg of the Western Conference Championship needing to earn a win by at least two goals in order to earn their fifth conference title in club history.

This is the tenth home-and-home playoff series in club history, and in eight of the previous nine, Houston has found a way to achieve the result they needed in the second leg to advance to the next round of the competition.

So, Houston's playof history suggests that they are even stronger in the second leg of these series than in the first. The Dynamo are 3-3-4 in the opening leg of playoff series but are 6-2-1 in Leg 2.

KEEPING CLEAN SHEETS

The general narrative of the Houston Dynamo for most of the season was a high-scoring offense leading the way and a defense that did just enough to get results.

Over the last month, however, the Dynamo back line has stepped up and become a rock-solid unit that is giving the offense a chance to make the most of its opportunities at the time of year when goals become more dif-ficult to come by.

Before giving up a goal to Portland in the 39th minute of their game on Nov. 5, Houston hadn't conceded a goal in 417 minutes - a span of four games and change. The 456-minute shutout streak was the third-longest in club history.

THE ALL-IMPORTANT FIRST GOAL

The Houston Dynamo were one of the league's best teams at home this season, with an 12-1-3 record. One of the biggest keys to that success so far has been the Dynamo's ability to jump out to early leads at home.

In nine of Houston's 17 home games, the Dynamo sccored inside of the first 20 minutes, and that proved to be a major factor in the team's lone road win, on July 22 at D.C. United, as the Dynamo bagged three goals inside of 20 minutes.

Furthermore, the Dynamo scored first in 14 of their 34 games, including 11 out of 17 times at home, and were 10-0-4 when they did so.

For a team like the Dynamo that has been at its best on the counterattack, the importance of nabbing the first goal cannot be underestimated. It forc-es the opposition to chase the game and opens them up even further for more dangerous Dynamo counters.

For Dynamo fans, getting in your seat or tuning in early has never been more important, as you may miss the most important moment of the game if you're 15 minutes late.

GOTTA FINISH TO WIN IT

The 2017 season has been somewhat bipolar in regard to the Houston Dy-namo attack, and in particular, the team's ability to finish its chances.

At first glance, the Dynamo's 13-10-11 regular season record would indi-cate a team around the middle of the league pack. However, a look into the numbers shows that the Dynamo were one of the league's most dangerous teams throughout the year; the difference in their win-loss results was sim-ply in their finishing.

Houston created 469 total shots during the regular season, which ranked eighth in the league: 184 in 13 victories, 125 in 10 losses and 161 in 10 draws. But looking at goals is another matter: 35 in wins, just five in losses and 14 in draws. That means that the Dynamo averaged a goal for every 4.84 shots in wins but it took a whopping 25 shots to generate each goal when they lose.

Dynamo fans will be hoping the boys put their shooting boots on when they take the field on Sunday night!

Recently, Dynamo head coach Wilmer Cabrera remarked that "this is Vi-cente's time," in regard to forward Vicente Sanchez. Houston signed the 37-year-old attacker prior to the season, and for most of the year he played sparingly as his younger teammates carried the load.

But over the last two-plus months as the playoff race tightened every week, Sanchez took on a larger role in the Dynamo attack, and he's proving that the old man still has it.

From August 1 through the end of the regular season, Sanchez played 306 minutes and created seven goals - two of his own and five for teammates. His 2.06 goals-plus-assists per 90 minutes is easily the most in the league over that time span.

"THIS IS VICENTE'S TIME" MULTIPLE SCORING THREATS

Forwards Alberth Elis and Mauro Manotas have each proven to be more than capable goal scorers for the Dynamo as the team pushed for the play-offs behind one of the most potent offensive attacks in the league.

Manotas bagged the third and final goal in Houston's 3-0 season-ending win over the Chicago Fire on Oct. 22, giving him 10 on the season. That tally moved him into a tie for second on the team with Elis, both of whom finished four goals behind Erick Torres' club-record 14 goals.

Elis was the sixth player in club history to score double-digit goals in a sea-son, and Manotas became the seventh. It marked the first time in Dynamo history that the club has had three players with 10 or more goals.

37-year-old Dynamo forward Vicente Sanchez has been arguably the most dangerous player in Major League Soccer since the beginning of August, outshining many rivals several years his junior.

From August 1 to the end of the regular season, Sanchez created 14 scoring chances in just 306 minutes on the field, an average of 4.12 chances creat-ed per 90 minutes of play. That's the third-highest ratio in the league over that time span.

SPREADING THE WEALTH

Forwards Erick Torres, Alberth Elis and Mauro Manotas are the first trio in Dynamo history to each score 10 or more goals in the same season. That three-headed scoring monster, along with the seven goals delivered by for-ward Romell Quioto, gives Houston the most diverse attacks in the league.

Houston was the only team in MLS to have three players with 10 or more goals this season, and was the first team since Sporting Kansas City in 2015 to have three or more 10-goal scorers.

BE QUICK, BUT DON'T HURRY

Legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden used to tell his players, "Be quick, but don't hurry." For the players, it was a message meant to remind them to play with pace, but to always remain under control.

For the 2017 Houston Dynamo, the same phrase could hold true when it comes to the team's attacking philosophy. The Dynamo openly admit to not being a possession-oriented team, and their stats (44.0 percent aver-age possession, 21st in MLS) backed that up.

However, despite not having much of the ball, LaNaranja are sixth in the league in scoring. Houston averages a goal every 23.59 minutes of posses-sion, which was the second-lowest ratio of any team in the league.

BASKETBALL ON GRASS

In keeping with the basketball theme above, it's probably only fitting to describe parts of the Dynamo attack as "basketball on grass." If you don't possess the ball for much of the game, yet sit amongst the league leaders in goals scored, your attack must be moving at a pretty quick pace.

Opta Sports tracks "fast breaks" in Major League Soccer, and no team has produced more fast breaks this season than the Dynamo or been more successful in converting them.

Houston's 18 fast break opportunities are two greater than the next-most prolific team, and their five fast break goals are the most in the league as well.

MACHADO CLEARS THE DANGER

Houston Dynamo defender Adolfo Machado was one of the club's mar-quee offseason additions when he signed on a transfer from Deportivo Saprissa. So important was he to Saprissa that the Costa Rican giant was forced to hold an emergency press conference when news leaked out in order to address their fans' displeasure.

Machado has quickly established himself as a force in the Dynamo back line, showcasing the leadership and physical presence that made him so popular at his former club. He is the only player on the team to have been on the field for every minute of the 2017 season to date. He's also shown himself to be one of the toughest center backs in MLS throughout the sea-son.

Machado led all MLS players in total clearances with 200. His 1200clear-ances were nearly 20 greater than the next closest player.

Among the top 25 players in clearances, Machado's 81 interceptions were also the most in the league, his 85 headed clearances were the third-most and his 45 tackles won were the fourth-most.

TORRES' GOLDEN FORM NETS CALL-UP

Dynamo forward Erick "Cubo" Torres is in the best form of his career this year, with 12 goals in 18 appearances. He's already within one goal of the club single-season scoring record set in 2008 by Brian Ching, and can put that mark, as well as his career high of 15 goals, in the rear-view mirror if he keeps it up.

That sensational form netted the 24-year-old a long-awaited call-up by the Mexican National Team for the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup. Torres has rep-resented his country on the international stage several times at the youth level, including at the 2016 Rio Olympics, but the Gold Cup will be his first senior international tournament.

Torres started and went 90 minutes in Mexico's 0-0 draw with Jamaica on Thursday, July 13. Mexico topped Group C with a 2-0-1 record. Against Hon-duras in the Quarterfinals on Thursday night, Torres came on as a substitute in the 75th minute and helped Mexico see out a 1-0 win.

In Mexico's 0-1 semifinal loss to Jamaica at the Rose Bowl on Sunday night, Torres again got the start and went 45 minutes, picking up a yellow card for a hard tackle in the first half.

Torres now has seven caps for Mexico at the senior level with one goal - the game-winning strike in a friendly against Panama on Oct. 12, 2014.

DYNAMO AWARDS IN 2017CLARK ENTERS ALL-TIME TOP 10

Houston Dynamo captain Ricardo Clark became just the 14th field player in the 21-year history of the league to start at least 300 regular-season games earlier this year; and on Wednesday, Oct. 11 in Houston's 2-1 win over Sporting Kansas City at BBVA Compass Stadium, he cracked the league's all-time Top 10.

Clark made his 316th career start and tied current Dynamo assistant coach Davy Arnaud and Pablo Mastroeni for 10th all-time. With a start last Sun-day in Houston's 0-0 draw at Sporting, Clark passed Arnaud and Mastroeni for sole possession of 10th all-time.

CABEZAS STRIKING THE RIGHT NOTES

When the Dynamo brought in Juan David Cabezas on loan from Colombian giants Deportivo Cali during the offseason, word on the 25-year-old mid-fielder was that he was expected to bring a ball-winning presence to the middle of the park for Houston. So far, he's been not only a ball winner, but also an adept distributor in possession.

In his first season with the Dynamo, Cabezas led the club in tackles (102), tackles won (77) and passes attempted (1,052); and his 86.41 pass comple-tion percentage was second on the squad among players with at least 50 attempts. He also ranked second on the team in interceptions (52) and was fifth in clearances (46).

ABOUT BBVA COMPASS STADIUM

BBVA Compass Stadium is a state-of-the-art, open-air stadium designed to host Houston Dynamo matches, Houston Dash matches and Tex-as Southern University football games as well as additional professional, collegiate and community sporting events, concerts, exhibitions, conventions and special events. Opened on May 12, 2012, the 340,000-square foot, 22,000-seat stadium is the first soccer-specific stadium in Major League Soccer located in a city’s downtown district.

An architecturally stunning building, the stadium features 94,000 square feet of aluminum panels on its exterior, giving it a modern and stylish appearance. Each of the panels is 50 percent open to improve air flow throughout the concourses. Canopies extend 75 feet over the stands on the east and west sides of the stadium, and a stage canopy extends 125 feet over the south end, providing shade to soccer fans and a built-in speaker setup for concerts. With its downtown location, the stadium is a part of a true ‘Stadium District,’ which includes Minute Maid Park and the Toyota Center, as well as the George R. Brown Convention Center, Discovery Green, Warehouse Live and House of Blues.

BBVA Compass Stadium was awarded the LEED® Silver certification from the U.S. Green Building Council in December 2012. The stadium has been identified as a pioneering example of new construction and sustainable design and is considered a leader in transforming the building industry.
