FRISCO — The last time Minnesota United stepped on an MLS field, FC Dallas ended their season in heartbreaking fashion. Alan Velasco’s panenka in the penalty...
header that forced an athletic save out of Dayne St. Clair. FCD finished with nine corners while conceding none.Minnesota United, on the other hand, spent most of the first half on its backheels. But their two chances put a scare in the bones of the FCD players. The first, which was also the first half-decent opportunity of the game for the Loons, was a Bongokuhle Hlongwane shot that hit the side netting in the 33rd minute. Four minutes later, Arriaga slammed a free kick off the crossbar.
Garcia almost doubled the lead just a few minutes later but FCD lucked out thanks to a generous no-call. Center back Sebastien Ibeagha turned the ball over right over the halfway line to Garcia. Ibeagha managed to hustle back and stop Garcia right outside the box with a tackle, although the Loons were incredulous no foul was called on the play.
The goal opened up both sides as FCD went after an equalizer and Minnesota United tried to add insurance. FCD spent a lot of time trying to work the right flank but the final actions didn’t threaten St. Clair much.
