Full Time - Valencia 2, Houston 1. They played mostly starters in the 1st half and reserves in the 2nd half. A competitive game and a respectable score, thought it would be a blowout in favor of Valencia (The 3rd best team in Spain's La Liga only behind FC Barcelona and Real Madrid).

The Dynamo are drawn to Group 3 with Olimpia (Honduras) and CD FAS (El Salvador) in the 2012-13 CONCACAF Champions League. http://www.concacaf.com/page/CL/NewsDetail/0,,12813~2798152,00.html
Houston Dynamo just signed Honduras midfielder Oscar Boniek Garcia as their Designated Player. http://www.chron.com/sports/dynamo/article/Dynamo-close-to-signing-Honduran-star-Boniek-3611834.php
yeahhh.finally another dp! also I believe hainnult has lost his starting spot not because of the call ups but Taylor's emergence. they should sit ashe and move Taylor to that position.
I'm really excited about getting Garcia, right mid is by far our biggest weakness. Also, the FCD game has been moved from 4:00 to 6:30, which is great news. https://twitter.com/ChrisCanetti/status/210462750470717441
The signing is official. He'll join the team when the transfer window opens on June 27. http://www.houstondynamo.com/news/2012/06/dynamo-sign-honduran-midfielder-oscar-boniek-garcia
Was hoping to get ronaldinho.:grin: Even though we're having trouble scoring, I believe the Dynamo are headed back to the finals. They re the Houston team I feel the most optimistic about. I hear there might be another splash, get er done Canetti.

Get er done Canetti? Would Sheva be worth it on a 18-month deal? Probably depends on what he has left after this tournament. If they make a deep run, he'll likely be a big part of it and too tired to continue right into the stretch run of the MLS season. I'm guessing he'll end up with DC but I wouldn't be against him signing with the Dynamo.
Nice 2-1 win, but the home side didn't look all that impressive until FC Dallas' Jair Benitez threw a Barkley-esque elbow at Colin Clark, earning him an ejection.
