MLS GAME INFORMATION

HOUSTON DYNAMO vs PHILADELPHIA UNION BBVA COMPASS STADIUM, Houston, Texas

October 20, 2012 (WEEK 32, MLS Game #309) 6:30 p.m. CT (NBC SN; TSN2) The Houston Dynamo will be aiming to extend their long unbeaten run while also securing a spot in the MLS Cup Playoffs when they play host to Philadelphia Union on Saturday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo are undefeated at home over the entire season, their streak now at 24 games, and are still hanging on to fifth place in the Eastern Conference following their 1-1 draw with Montréal last time out. Union are eliminated from playoff consideration but have won two games in a row, coming off a 1-0 win against New England before the international break. REFEREE: Mark Geiger. SAR (bench): Greg Barkey; JAR (opposite): Adam Garner; 4th: Ismail Elfath MLS Career: 102 games; FC/gm: 26.5; Y/gm: 3.7; R: 26; pens: 34 INJURY REPORT: HOUSTON DYNAMO – QUESTIONABLE: MF Brad Davis (L calf strain) … PHILADELPHIA UNION – OUT: DF Bakary Soumare (R knee menisectomy recovery); DOUBTFUL: DF Sheanon Williams (L ankle peroneal/Achilles strain); QUESTIONABLE: DF Gabriel Farfan (R ankle contusion); MF Danny Cruz (L big toe sesamoid stress fracture); FW Zach Pfeffer (L knee contusion); PROBABLE: MF Freddy Adu (L quad strain) INTERNATIONAL ABSENCES: none SUSPENDED: none WARNINGS: SUSPENDED NEXT YELLOW CARD: HOU: Bobby Boswell … PHI: Gabriel Farfan, Gabriel Gomez, Michael Lahoud SUSPENDED AFTER TWO YELLOW CARDS: HOU: Corey Ashe, Calen Carr, Brad Davis, Macoumba Kandji … PHI: Brian Carroll, Jack McInerney, Carlos Valdes, Michael Farfan HEAD-TO-HEAD ALL-TIME (6 meetings): Dynamo 1 win, 7 goals … Union 3 wins, 10 goals … Ties 2 AT HOUSTON (3 meetings): Dynamo 1 win, 4 goals … Union 2 wins, 5 goals … Ties 0 2012 (MLS) 6/30: HOU 2, PHI 1 (Davis 20; Ching 83 – Daniel 46) 9/23: PHI 3, HOU 1 (Adu 28, 50; Martinez 70 – Garcia 44)

The teams are playing for the third time this season, having split the first two. A late Brian Ching penalty kick was the decider in a 2-1 Dynamo victory June 30 at BBVA Compass Stadium, then Freddy Adu scored a pair of goals in a 3-1 Union win Sept. 23 at PPL Park.

The win in the first meeting was the Dynamo’s first in league play vs. Philadelphia; Union had won two of the first four, with two draws. But Houston did win both legs of last year’s Eastern Conference Semifinal Series, a 2-1 win in Chester followed by a 1-0 victory in Houston, on their way to MLS Cup 2011.

Coaches record: John Hackworth vs. HOU: P2 W1 L1 D0 … Dominic Kinnear v PHI: P6 W1 L3 D2 LAST MEETING

Union took the lead in the 28th minute. Right back Ray Gaddis made a marauding run up the field and put in a cross that eventually found its way to Freddy Adu beyond the far post. Adu then cut the ball in front of goal and beat Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall to the near post.

The Dynamo pulled level just a minute before halftime when Boniek García hit a beautiful strike off the post and in, following a great feed from Will Bruin, who sucked both defenders to him in the middle of the box.

Adu netted his second goal of game when he banged home a 50th-minute penalty kick after André Hainault dragged down Philly’s Sheanon Williams in the box. Adu then left the game while clutching his left leg, replaced by Keon Daniel.

Josué Martinez capped the victory in the 71th minute when he got his foot on a blast from center back Amobi Okugo and took another touch to beat Hall right in front of the net.

PHILADELPHIA UNION (4-4-2): Zac MacMath - Raymon Gaddis, Carlos Valdes, Amobi Okugo, Sheanon Williams - Danny Cruz (Chris Albright 81), Michael Lahoud, Brian Carroll, Michael Farfan - Freddy Adu (Keon Daniel 57 / Antoine Hoppenot 66), Josue Martinez.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

HOUSTON DYNAMO The Houston Dynamo extended their long undefeated streak at home for one more match, reaching a 1-1 draw with the Montréal Impact on Oct. 6 at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo are in fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 50 points from 32 games. LAST MATCH

The Dynamo opened the scoring in the 44th minute when winger Calen Carr shook Impact defender Alessandro Nesta in the box and set up Will Bruin up for a poke inside the near post.

But the Impact pulled even in the 66th minute. Marco Di Vaio played a sublime turn and through ball to Sanna Nyassi, who was persistent cleaning up his own rebound after an initial save by Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall.

Houston’s Brian Ching appeared to pull out the full three points with a chip of Montreal goalkeeper Troy Perkins in the 93rd minute, but after a conference between referee Chris Penso and assistant referee Jason Cullum, Ching was ruled offside and the goal was disallowed.

Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear made one change to the team that recorded a late 2-0 win against the New England Revolution at BBVA Compass Stadium. Macoumba Kandji came into the team in place of Brad Davis.

HOUSTON DYNAMO (4-4-2): Tally Hall - Kofi Sarkodie, Jermaine Taylor, Bobby Boswell, Corey Ashe - Boniek Garcia, Adam Moffat (Warren Creavalle 89), Ricardo Clark, Calen Carr - Will Bruin (Cam Weaver 72), Macoumba Kandji (Brian Ching 72).

TEAM NEWS It’s the final home game of the regular season for the Dynamo, who are bidding to become the fourth team in

MLS history to go undefeated at home over an entire season (San Jose, 2005; Real Salt Lake, 2010; LA Galaxy, 2011).

The Dynamo are also riding a 24-game home unbeaten streak in league play, now the second-longest in MLS history. Real Salt Lake’s 29-game streak from 2009-11 is the league record.

“Definitely happy when it’s all said and done that we’re in the position that if the season ended today we’d be in,” said goalkeeper Tally Hall. “We look back and we still see some critical things that we need to do better. … I know it’s late in the season, but those things can still be done and still be accomplished. We’re in a spot where we can get in if we do our job ,so at the end of the day, it’s not so bad.”

The Dynamo can also lay claim to a place in the MLS Cup Playoffs with a victory vs. Philadelphia and a Columbus Crew loss earlier Saturday at D.C. United.

“We live to fight another day and we still have some business to attend to,” said defender Bobby Boswell. “Our destiny’s still in our hands, but we’ve made it a little tougher on ourselves.”

Midfielder Brad Davis missed the Montréal match with a calf injury suffered during training, but has returned to full training. He is listed as questionable for the Philadelphia match on the club’s injury report.

“This is the first time I’ve been really able to get back on the field and really test it,” Davis said. “You want to slowly progress and that’s what I was doing, going through some slow agility stuff and making sure that was okay and then ramping it up and I ended up getting to a 100 percent. Now I know I’m comfortable with the fact that I can get back into training and feel confident that the calf’s good.”

Said Boswell: “He’s a great player and obviously he’s been a part of everything in terms of our success. We need everyone who's available and healthy to play, so getting him back to healthy is the goal. ... He’s a very important piece of this team.”

Will Bruin scored his 12th goal of the season, his first since Aug. 25. “Obviously we would’ve liked to get the win [against Montreal] but we still have [the playoffs] within our control,” said Bruin. “I really don’t feel as much pressure on us, I just feel we have to go out and play and the results will take care of themselves. There’re only two games left so there are not many more opportunities we can miss.”

Cam Weaver made his third consecutive appearance as a substitute, his fifth in the last eight games after going more than three months without a first-team outing.

Brian Ching also came off the bench for the final 18 minutes in his 14th substitute appearance since the midway point of the campaign.

“I thought we did everything right [except for] getting in the back of the net,” said Weaver. “In the end, it’s about the ball crossing that line and hitting the back of the net and, unfortunately, we weren’t able to do that.”

PHILADELPHIA UNION Philadelphia Union won for a second match on the trot, defeating the New England Revolution 1-0 on Oct. 6 at PPL Park. Union are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 36 points from 31 games. LAST MATCH

The game's lone goal came in the 73rd minute. After Michael Farfan won a free kick in the right corner, Jack McInerney snuck to the back post and headed home Keon Daniel's service.

The Revolution finished the game a man down when midfielder Benny Feilhaber was sent off in the 89th minute for his second yellow card.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

Union interim manager John Hackworth made two changes to the team that defeated the Chicago Fire 3-1 at Toyota Park. Gabriel Farfan came into the back four for Sheanon Williams, and Gabriel Gomez replaced Danny Cruz in the midfield.

PHILADELPHIA UNION (4-2-3-1): Zac MacMath - Raymon Gaddis, Amobi Okugo, Carlos Valdes, Gabriel Farfan - Michael Lahoud (Antoine Hoppenot 61), Brian Carroll - Michael Farfan, Gabriel Gomez (Roger Torres 71), Keon Daniel - Jack McInerney (Chris Albright 81).

TEAM NEWS Union have now won two games in a row since being eliminated from playoff contention, and have taken the

full three points in three of their last four games off an eight-game winless run. “We’ll get results and we’re playing good. Before, I think we were playing good, and we weren’t getting the

results. And that’s what I think this team has a little bit of a chip on their shoulder, because we want to prove to people that we can play well and get the results,” Union manager John Hackworth said. “And so the guys in that room have a lot of pride, a lot of character.”

Jack McInerney scored for a third consecutive match, equaling the Union club record for consecutive games with a goal, which had been done three times previously.

“Jack McInerney has been really important to us in the last couple months and it’s great to see him scoring goals because for this team, in the last couple games, he’s done a huge amount of work and this is a tough position for him because we’re asking him to do it by himself a little bit,” Hackworth said. “ … I think what you’re seeing right now is a goal-scorer's mentality. This is the third game in a row he’s scored and I can’t remember that happening here before. All of these things are good indicators of what we already knew.”

Union goalkeeper Zac MacMath kept his eighth shutout of the season, his first since a scoreless draw at New England on Sept. 1.

“Everyone sets individual goals as well as team goals,” MacMath said. “That’s on my priority list for individual goals. [Ten shutouts is] something I hope to reach. … It had been a while. I’m happy to get one under my belt and I’m trying to close out the season with as many shutouts as I can.”

Making a start in consecutive games for the first time since June 30-July 4, Keon Daniel recorded his first assist of the season.

“I think it showed in the last two games why everyone in the locker room and coaching staff feel that way. In consecutive games, he’s contributed in every possible way,” Hackworth said. “ … He was really good in possession and going forward. He joined the attack and his service, especially on set pieces, was excellent and consistent. But he did a lot of work to get back and his intensity was right. I think it’s been something he’s struggled with – the intensity in this league. He’s certainly stepped up in that regard.”

After missing the New England match with what was first feared to be a season-ending Achilles tendon injury, winger Danny Cruz says he will be available for the final two matches this season. He is listed as questionable on the club’s injury report.

“I don’t plan on missing any more games,” Cruz said. “ … I think people that know me know I can play through a lot. But that scared me. It was a sharp, shooting pain and something I’ve never felt before. So I was really worried. But everything turned out well.”

DYNAMO SEEKING WIN IN HOME FINALE TO COMPLETE UNBEATEN HOME SCHEDULE The Houston Dynamo (13‐8‐11; 50 points) will host the Philadelphia Union (10‐15‐6, 36 points) on Saturday night in their 

final regular season home game. With a win or a draw, the Dynamo (10‐0‐6 at home) will become the fourth team in league 

history to complete an unbeaten home schedule. The Dynamo can also clinch a place in the playoffs on Saturday. A Houston 

win over the Union and a Columbus Crew lose to D.C. United would secure a berth for the Dynamo. The Dynamo are in fifth 

place in the Eastern Conference, three points behind the New York Red Bulls and a point above the Columbus Crew. The top 

five teams in each conference qualify for the MLS playoffs.  

 

Houston vs. Philadelphia Houston is 1‐3‐2 in regular season meetings with the Union heading into Saturday’s third meeting of 2012. The Union 

defeated the Dynmo, 3‐1, on Sept. 29 at PPL Park. Freddy Adu tallied a pair of goals for the Union while Boniek Garcia scored 

for the Dynamo. In the first meeting this season, June 30 in Houston, the Dynamo earned a 2‐1 win. Brad Davis and Brian 

Ching delivered Houston’s goals while Keon Daniel provided the Union equalizer. Ching came of the bench and earned a late 

penalty, which he buried for the match‐winner. The clubs met in the 2011 MLS playoffs and the Dynamo secured a 3‐1 

aggregate series win. Houston won 2‐1 at PPL Park in the first leg before closing out the series with a 1‐0 triumph in the final 

Dynamo game at Roberston Stadium.

DYNAMO NOTES _ Dynamo play to 1‐1 draw with Montreal: The Dynamo and Montreal Impact drew 1‐1 on Oct. 6 at BBVA Compass 

Stadium. Will Bruin handed the Dynamo a lead just before halftime, but Montrealʹs Sanna Nyassi evened the score midway 

through the second half. Deep into second half stoppage time, Brian Ching scored an apparent game‐winner with a perfect 

chip over charging Montreal goalkeeper Troy Perkins. But after a conference between the referees, Ching was ruled offside 

and the goal was nullified.     

Bruin nearing Ching’s season goals mark: Will Bruin scored his 12th goal of the season on Oct. 6 vs. Montreal. With his 

next goal, Bruin will tie Brian Ching, who set a franchise record with 13 goals in 2008. Bruin is one of only three players in 

team history to reach 10 goals, joining Ching (13 in 2008, 11 in 2006) and Dwayne De Rosario (11 in 2006).

Dynamo win MLS Reserve League Central/Mountain division title: The Dynamo captured the Major League Soccer 

Reserve League Central/Mountain division championship with a 2‐1 win over the Chicago Fire on Saturday. Cam Weaver 

scored both goals for the Dynamo and led the club in scoring with 11 goals in nine games. The Dynamo Reserves finish the 

season 6‐2‐2 (20 points), a point better than rival FC Dallas (6‐3‐1, 19 points) to capture the division crown. It is Houston’s 

second MLS Reserve League division title. The Dynamo won the division crown in 2008 with a 9‐1‐2 record. 

Internationals return after Tuesday’s qualifiers: Four Dynamo players returned to training on Thursday after playing in 

two World Cup qualifying matches on Oct. 12 and Tuesday. Below are details of each player’s participation in the matches.  

PLAYER  OPPONENTS   OCT. 12 MINUTES OCT. 16 MINUTES

Boniek Garcia (Honduras)  @ Panama, vs. Canada 90 minutes 77 minutes 

Andre Hainault (Canada)  vs. Cuba, @ Honduras 90 minutes 90 minutes 

Jermaine Taylor (Jamaica)  @ Guatemala, vs. A&B 90 minutes 90 minutes 

Je‐Vaughn Watson  @ Guatemala, vs. A&B 42 minutes 7 minutes 

 

Garcia, Taylor, Watson advance to final round of World Cup qualifying: Three Dynamo players – Boniek Garcia, Jermaine 

Taylor and Je‐Vaughn Watson – helped their counties reach the final round of World Cup qualifying with results on 

Tuesday and Oct. 12. Honduras (Garcia) and Jamaica (Taylor and Watson) join the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica and 

Panama to form the six‐nation Hexagonal round, which begins next February and concludes next October. The top three 

nations will advance to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and the fourth place country will stage a playoff against the winner of 

the Oceania confederation.  

Familiar Face: The Dynamo could face a familiar face for the fifth time this season on Saturday against the Union. Danny 

Cruz was drafted by the Dynamo in 2009 and played in 51 games during three seasons in orange before he was traded to 

D.C. United in January. If Cruz plays on Saturday (listed as questionable with a left big toe sesamoid stress fracture on 

Tuesday), it will be Cruz’s fifth game against the Dynamo in 2012. Cruz started all three Dynamo‐D.C. United games this 

season before starting for Philadelphia in its 3‐1 win over the Dynamo on Sept. 29.   

Hall breaks former mentor Pat Onstad’s shutout record: Goalkeeper Tally Hall recorded his 12th shutout of the season on 

Sept. 29 against New England. With the clean sheet, Hall passed former teammate Pat Onstad, who set an individual 

franchise record with 11 shutouts in 2007, when the club had a total of 13 clean sheets in 30 regular season games. Hall is 

second in the league in shutouts, trailing only Jimmy Nielsen of Sporting Kansas City (14).  

Ching among best finishers in league history: Brian Ching has scored 82 goals in his 11‐year Major League Soccer career 

and has been one of the most efficient finishers in league history. Among players with a minimum of 100 career shots on 

goal, Ching has the second best goals‐per‐shot‐on‐goal percentage, at 43%. Simply put, 43 percent of the time Ching has 

recorded a shot on goal, he has scored. Below is a chart of the best scoring rates for players with a minimum of 100 shots on 

goal.

the season on Sept. 29 vs. New England, surpassing his previous career‐high for games in a season of 30, set in 2006. The 29‐

year‐old has been a mainstay since his 2005 rookie season, appearing in at least 23 games and making 22 starts or more each 

season. Boswell has averaged 28 games and 27.63 starts per season in his eight‐year career. If Boswell plays Saturday

season assist on Sept. 29 vs. New England to pass Cobi Jones for seventh on the MLS all‐time assist chart. Davis is now nine 

assists behind the next man on the chart, Marco Etcheverry, who is sixth with 101 assists. Dynamo assistant coach Steve 

Ralston is the all‐time leader, with 135 assists.  

Kinnear passes Nicol on MLS all‐time wins chart: With the 2‐0 win over New England on Sept. 29, Dynamo head coach 

Dominic Kinnear passed Steve Nicol and moved into fifth place on the all‐time Major League Soccer wins chart. Kinnear 

has 113 wins in nine seasons as head coach between Houston and San Jose.

Boniek García continues strong start: Boniek Garcia scored for the second consecutive game on Sept. 29 vs. New England,

six. The 28‐year‐old Designated Player signed with Houston on June 7 after playing for Honduran powerhouse C.D. 

Olimpia since 2003. The midfielder debuted for the Honduras national team in 2005 and has 73 appearances for his 

country, including five appearances in the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup.

consecutive minutes, including playoffs) before exiting Houston’s 1‐0 win on Sept. 6 in the 74th minute with a stomach 

virus. The last time Boswell missed a minute of MLS action was Sept. 14, 2011 at Columbus. The center back was the only 

Dynamo field player to play every minute of every MLS game in 2012. Geoff Cameron holds the franchise record for 

consecutive full‐time games. Cameron’s streak reached 40 games this season (3,576 consecutive minutes, including playoffs)

division through February, when he was loaned to Stabæk Fotball of the Norwegian first division. A cornerstone of 

Houston’s 2006 and 2007 championship teams, Clark, a member of the 2006 MLS Best XI, scored 7 goals in 97 games played 

for the Dynamo between 2006 and 2009.  Additionally, Clark has been capped 34 times by the U.S. Men’s National Team,

2008 in the SuperLiga.  

Cameron receives U.K. visa to complete transfer to Stoke City: Former Dynamo defender Geoff Cameron was granted a

regular season appearances for the club in five seasons, scoring 11 goals with 15 assists. The Attleboro, Mass. native played 

various roles in central midfield and center back for the Dynamo and was named an MLS All‐Star in 2009, 2011 and 2012. 

Cameron also won Houston’s Golden Boot in 2011 with five goals and five assists in a career‐high 33 games. 

Carr sets career high with fourth goal: Calen Carr set a career high with his fourth goal of the season on Aug. 3 All four

three clean sheets in a row twice in a seven‐game span in July and August. Houston kept its third straight clean sheet on 

Aug. 3 versus New York after recording three in a row to begin July. Before the run of six clean sheets in seven games, the 

last time Houston recorded three straight was May 30 – June 10, 2009.  

Davis, Cameron named All‐Stars: Midfielder Brad Davis and former Dynamo defender Geoff Cameron were named to the 

inactive roster for the 2012 MLS All‐Star Game. The Dynamo pair were among a group of 13 players named All‐Stars that 

did not compete in MLS’ 3‐2 win against Chelsea FC on July 25. The 13 inactive All‐Stars were voted on by the players. It is 

the fourth straight year that Davis is an All‐Star, and his fifth selection overall.

Three in a row for Bruin: Will Bruin scored in three consecutive games (6/16, 6/20, 6/23) for the second time this season 

(4/15, 4/21, 4/28), with four goals in each three‐game scoring streak. He is the first Dynamo player with a pair of three‐game 

scoring streaks in the same season, and just the second player to record two streaks overall (Ching). His last streak marked 

the sixth time a Dynamo player has scored in three consecutive games (Bruin 2012 (twice); Ching 2006, 2008; Joseph 

Ngwenya 2007; Stuart Holden 2009). No Dynamo player has ever scored in four consecutive games.  

Hall sets goalkeeper consecutive starts record: Tally Hall set a franchise record for consecutive regular season starts by a 

goalkeeper with his 47th consecutive start against FC Dallas on June 16. He broke the record of 46 set by Pat Onstad, from 

Sept. 13, 2008 – May 13, 2010. Hall started all 34 games in 2011 and the first 32 games in 2012, pushing the active record to 

66 games. Hall has the second longest active streak MLS goalkeepers, behind Matt Pickens of Colorado (75 starts).  

•  BBVA Compass Stadium opener: The Dynamo opened the 13th soccer‐specific stadium in Major League Soccer on May 12. 

On a gorgeous, 82‐degree day in front of a sell‐out crowd of 22,039, the Dynamo honored past legends, including Wade 

Barrett, Pat Onstad, Eddie Robinson and Craig Waibel in a pregame ceremony that included the unveiling of 2006 and 

2007 MLS Cup championship banners. Brad Davis provided a signature opening moment, delivering a beautiful, curling 30‐

yard strike for the game‐winning goal in the 67th minute.

LAST MATCH v HOUSTON DYNAMO PHILADELPHIA UNION 3-1 HOUSTON DYNAMO – September 23, 2012

• Philadelphia Union ended their longest winless streak of the season with a 3-1 victory over the Houston Dynamo.

• The Dynamo controlled possession in the game (53.4%) and were more accurate than the Union at passing with a 82.1% passing accuracy rate over the Union’s 77.3%.

• The Union started off the scoring when right back Ray Gaddis crossed a ball into the box that took a couple of bounces off Houston players and found Freddy Adu on the endline. Adu cut the ball to the right and beat Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall to the near post.

• Late in the first half Houston’s Boniek Garcia hit a strike off the post and in to tie the game going into halftime.

• The Union’s Sheanon Williams was dragged down by Houston’s Andre Hainault in the box giving Philadelphia a penalty kick. Freddy Adu converted the penalty kick, netting his second goal of the game.
