MLS Regular Season
Match Recap: Houston Dynamo 1, LA Galaxy 0
CARSON, Calif. -- Landon Donovan failed again from the penalty spot, and the MLS Cup rematch, unlike the past two MLS Cups, went the Houston Dynamo's way, thanks to Andrew Driver's second-half finish.
The Houston Dynamo and LA Galaxy will play Sunday night in a rematch of the previous two MLS Cup finals. The Dynamo are 6-6-4 all-time vs. the Galaxy with a 2-3-2 regular season record vs. LA at The Home Depot Center. The Dynamo won the regular season series last year, defeating the Galaxy 2-1 at BBVA Compass Stadium on May 26, but the Galaxy got the last laugh, winning MLS Cup 3-1 in front of their home side on December 1.

Houston Dynamo not losing focus ahead of Sunday's match at LA Galaxy
Dominic Kinnear has not watched the game again. Hasn't thought about it. Nor has Corey Ashe. The message as the Dynamo return to the scene of last December's MLS Cup defeat is that Sunday's clash is not about revenge for 2012. It's about making a statement of intent for 2013.
Houston Dynamo looking for good result against LA Galaxy, but not looking at the past
Six months ago, the Houston Dynamo stepped off the Home Depot Center field as the second-best team for the second year in a row.
It was the latest in Houston’s struggles at the HDC vs. the Galaxy, where they are 2-7-2 all-time versus the defending champions, including those two MLS Cup losses.
