Cristobal Hernández damages knee ligaments — 27 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 27 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.
Match19 Apr 2031
A hiding for Houston Dynamo
Beaten 0‑5 by Colorado Rapids, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Houston Dynamo may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

A one-man rearguard from Jayden Hibbert
There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.
Match19 Apr 2031
The wait goes on for Houston Dynamo

Houston Dynamo to lose Sean Nealis for free

Houston Dynamo baulk at the price for Matt Edwards
FC Cincinnati wanted more than $610.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

A falling-out at Houston Dynamo
Lucas Halter and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
In brief
- Transfer targets Door shut on Nicolás Valentini
- Match Houston Dynamo are shipping goals every week
- Squad Nicolás Gil falls out with a teammate over standards
