The Houston Dynamo defeated Chivas USA for the second time in three weeks, this one a 2-0 win in Los Angeles. Brad Davis and Adrian Serioux both scored for the Dynamo in the first eight minutes of the match.

Brian Ching did not play, but he traveled with the team and was among the 18 players dressed for the match. It was the first time he was one the Dynamo’s 18 eligible players since straining his hamstring in a match on April 1. Ching has been practicing full speed with the team during the past week.

The Dynamo, now 4-3-1, will play at Real Salt Lake on Thursday, May 13. It will be Houston’s fourth game in 13 days.
