The Dynamo had 67 per cent possession and outshot Toronto 17-10, but each team had four shots on target. Houston had six blocked shots and Toronto had one.
Houston made 561 passes during the match, while Toronto had 226. Houston had 11 fouls compared to Toronto's 10, while the visitors took three of the game's four yellow cards. Houston had seven of the game's 10 corner kicks.
