Overview
- Houston Dynamo beat the Colorado Rapids 1-0 on Saturday in Houston on a 72nd-minute strike by Lawrence Ennali.
- The goal came after a cleared corner from Guilherme, which Ennali settled with one touch before tucking his shot under the bar.
- Goalkeeper Jonathan Bond protected the lead with a punch save on Paxten Aaronson deep in stoppage time and finished with two saves to Zack Steffen’s four.
- Colorado’s depth was hit during a seven-games-in-21-days stretch as Rob Holding left in the 33rd minute with a leg issue and Josh Atencio exited in the first half for a precautionary concussion substitution.
- Players wore black armbands for late fan Ryan Sabin, and the club plans a tribute at the next home match on May 9.
