FRISCO – FC Dallas and Facundo Quignon hosted Houston Dynamo in Copa Tejas<\/a> match on Saturday afternoon. Dallas were flying high, unbeaten in five league games. Paulo Nagamura’s side was also unbeaten in five MLS games and were building on their identity<\/a>. Both teams came in leggy having won midweek U.S. Open Cup games.<\/p>\n

At the death, Facundo Quignon goal lifts FC Dallas over Dynamo<\/h2>\n

The first 15 minutes were very exciting with chances for both sides. Tyler Pasher had a great chance from close range six minutes on but he sent the ball over the bar. Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ednez had a chance from a sharp angle off a corner but could not convert.<\/p>\n

Sebasti\u00e1n Ferreira opened the scoring just after the half hour. Adam Lundqvist found him in the box with a half step of space. Ferreira did well to control the ball with his first touch the shot a bouncing ball past Maarten Paes.<\/p>\n

Memo Rodr\u00edguez nearly made it 2-0 ten minutes into the second half. He curled the ball to his left on a direct free kick from the top of the box. The ball went off the cross bar, bounced in front of the goal and was headed out for a corner.<\/p>\n

The game opened up in the second half with 20 minutes to go. Steve Clark made the save of the game in the 78th minute, denying Franco Jara on a header. Clark was finally beaten in the 87th minute after Jara hit the post. Tsiki Ntsabeleng pounced on a rebound on a shot from Mart\u00ednez.<\/p>\n

With six minutes of stoppage time given, the home side pushed for a winner. Quignon had a tap in off a corner that was flicked on at the near post by a Dynamo defender. He converted first time then ran across the end line with his shirt off to celebrate.<\/p>\n

The match ended 2-1.<\/p>\n

Never stop believing.<\/p>\n
