When: August 20, 8:00 PM Where: Robertson Stadium, Houston, TX Television: Channel 55 (English), Channel 43 (Spanish) Radio: 790 AM (English), 850 AM (Spanish) The newly-minted Western Conference leading Dynamo (7-4-8, 29 points) will take on Chivas USA (6-8-5, 23 points) tomorrow night with the intention of padding their lead over Real Salt Lake. Unfortunately, we'll be missing Brian Ching (USA), Dwayne De Rosario and Pat Onstad (Canada) due to national team call-ups. In my opinion, we should not have to worry though. What used to put us at a distinct disadvantage has now been erased due to the arrivals of Nate Jaqua and Kei Kamara. This is not to say that I'm happy to see Tony Caig in goal, but I can live with that so long as our defense plays infinitely better than they did against RSL. Chivas USA is not without it's injuries either. Jesse Marsch is out for a few weeks due to a fractured jaw he suffered last week. Along with the Galaxy, it seems as both of Los Angeles' teams are tanking at just the right time so I hope that the Dynamo can take advantage of this night.
The Astros may be done, but the Dynamo will be playing deep into October. Outstanding win tonight. 4-0 pasting of Chivas.
Great night! Dynamo smash Chivas. Brian Ching plays a fantastic game helping the US win for the first time in Guatemala. Carlos Ruiz loses again. Can't get much better than that.
Things have really started clicking lately. Adding Jaqua and Kamara up top has been huge. Jaqua seems better than before and Kamara has been a pleasant surprise.
Hopefully Kamara's ankle won't be bothering him after last night. That was a nasty turn he took, but it didn't stop him from almost getting the hat trick and getting foiled by the post.
