Sebastian Ferreira staked the Dynamo to a 1-0 lead in the 5th minute when he scored from near midfield after catching Houston keeper Brad Stuver off his line. Stuver was injured on the save attempt when he crashed into the back of the net and had to leave on a stretcher. The 31-year-old suffered a right knee laceration upon falling on the back stanchion of the goal.
“Real significant laceration across his knee, structurally everything looks good,” Austin FC head coach Josh Wolff said of Stuver’s injury. “They may keep him overnight to make sure they clean that up and stitch it up properly, but everything structurally looks good. It was a tough knock and the guys responded from that, but good win. Obviously Brad’s in our thoughts and he should be fine in the coming weeks.
Diego Fagúndez and Julio Cascante picked up assists on Driussi's game-winner. Austin has won four straight in extending its unbeaten streak to six.Andrew Tarbell saved all five shots he faced in relief of Stuver. Steve Clark saved three of the five shots he faced for the Dynamo.The Associated Press created this story using technology provided by Data Skrive and data from Sportradar.
