The managers W. Cabrera and B. Olsen are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Major League Soccer league table.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Houston Dynamo and DC United.

DC United have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3700 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
