Two games on tonight, with the first coming from...
Toronto, as Toronto FC hosts the Houston Dynamo. Tyler Deric and Joe Bendik man the nets. Houston struck first in the thirty-fifth minute on a Giles Barnes goal, coming off of Kofi Sarkodie. The Dynamo went down to ten men in the fifty-fifth minute, as A.J. Cochran was sent off on a straight red card for his foul. Toronto took a yellow card for a Daniel Lovitz foul in stoppage time. Houston held on for a 1-0 win, and the man of the match was Deric with his clean sheet and six saves.
The other game has the Portland Timbers hosting the San Jose Earthquakes. Jon Busch and Donovan Ricketts are the keepers. The teams traded yellow cards in the first half, with Portland's Ben Zemanski getting on in the twentieth minute, followed by Shaun Francis of San Jose getting the other in the thirtieth minute. The Timbers led off with a forty-first minute Rodney Wallace goal, via Darlington Nagbe. Portland added on with a fifty-first minute penalty kick conversion by Diego Valeri. The Timbers took a yellow card in the sixty-fifth minute as Norberto Paparatto committed a foul. Portland extended their lead with another Valeri goal in the seventy-third minute. This made it 3-0, with the man of the match being Valeri for his brace. Interestingly, the Earthquakes failed to put a shot on goal against the Timbers, leading to a clean sheet with no saves for Ricketts in what is like one of his easiest games of all time.
