Real Salt Lake 3-0 Houston Dynamo: Result and Key Stats

⭐ Key Players

  • Zavier Gozo scored 2 goals, reportedly in the 57th minute and 64th minute, in the 3-0 win.
  • Duane Holmes was credited in reports with the 49th-minute own goal that opened the 3-0 score.
  • Rafael Cabral reportedly made 4 saves and kept a clean sheet in the 3-0 result.
  • DeAndre Yedlin reportedly supplied the pass for Zavier Gozo in the 57th minute.

The report says Real Salt Lake broke the deadlock just after the interval, when Duane Holmes turned the ball into his own net in the 49th minute. That changed the shape of a game that had been level at 0-0 by halftime. From there, the hosts were said to have found more space in transition, and the score quickly moved away from Houston Dynamo.

Reports suggest the second goal arrived in the 57th minute after DeAndre Yedlin led the counterattack and slipped a pass into Gozo, who finished from the centre of the box. The same update says Gozo struck again seven minutes later, running on to a long ball from Stijn Spierings and beating Jonathan Bond inside the far post.

Houston were said to have stayed in the match long enough to force Cabral into four saves, but they could not turn that pressure into a route back. The update adds that the shutout was Cabral's second of the season, while Gozo's brace marked his first multi-goal game in MLS. Those details rounded out the night's summary and score.
