Having Xbox as the team sponsor seems rather appropriate with some of the moves Obafemi Martins was pulling out during the game. Now to just figure out what button combination it is to do that Oba Spin.
Stefan Frei gets a stomped on foot for his efforts:
Dylan Remick had a strong performance highlighted by this smart decision to retreat and keep Houston's counter-attack in front of him. Effectively kills off their quick chance (watch bottom right):
The Dempsey-Martins "Drift" was almost in full sync early:
OBA GOAL! A nice interception and nifty pass to Clint Dempsey by Lamar Neagle leads to some straight up wizard stuff from Obafemi Martins:
10/10 OBA FLIP:
Gonzalo Pineda red card. Looks pretty straightforward:
Brad Evans had a very solid performance at CB especially in the last 20 minutes when we were trying to see out this game. A textbook play here:
Osvaldo Alonso is back! A first game where his first few touches looked a little slow, Ozzie just brings something to the game that is hard to quantify. This play may result in a goal if not for Tyler "Save of Week Every Week" Deric:
One more time:
Look at Deric's left boot:
To me this Oba chance put a little bit of hesitancy into Houston. He just about beats 5 defenders to seal the win in a very FIFA 15 video game-esque style:
Sigi Schmid gives Ozzie a well-deserved hug:
Gyrate away, Leonardo Gonzalez:
"INVISIBLE OVERSIZED MOSQUITOS!":
