Santos and Bouzat score for Houston Dynamo to shut out Sporting KC 2-0
HOUSTON (AP) --- Guilherme Santos and Agustn Bouzat both scored as the Houston
Dynamo shut out Sporting KC 2-0 on Saturday.
Houston (9-6-2) now sits in fourth place in the Western Conference, two points
up on Real Salt Lake.
Santos netted the first goal of the night in the 55th minute with an
outside-the-box shot that found the back of the net on an expected goal of 3%.
With the goal, he became the ninth player in MLS history to score or assist on
at least 17 of his club's first 25 goals in a season.
Bouzat sealed the win with a left-footed shot from the center of the box to
help the Dynamo extend their unbeaten streak to five games.
Jonathan Bond made four saves for Houston to preserve the clean sheet.
