The 2021 MLS season officially kicked off and the first game this year was the Houston Dynamo vs. San Jose Earthquakes, held at BBVA Compass Stadium. The final result was a victory for the local squad by a score of 2-1 and in this way they added their first three points of the campaign.
Houston Dynamo had only 39% of possession, but they knew how to take advantage of their offensive plays and this ended up giving them the victory. The first goal of the game was the work of Memo Rodríguez, who at minute 39 received a filtered pass from Joe Corona. Once inside the area, Rodríguez defined with the inside of his right foot and thus defeated goalkeeper Marcinkowski.
For the complementary part extended Maximiliano Urrutithe advantage after taking advantage of the benefits of the defensive line of San Jose. The attacker was in the heart of the area and received a low pass. Because he was unmarked, he gave her time to set up the ball and shoot calmly. This is how the second entry was lived tonight.
Finally, the discount goal for the San Jose Earthquakes came at minute 74 through Paul Marie, who, after an overflow down the left wing, cut towards the center and took a long-distance right hand to send the ball to the back of the net. Impossible to stop for Maric.
