Oh wait, JP just welcomed everyone back. Was that a planned break? If so, epic, epic fail.

That happened.

Le Toux gets the world’s worst bounces. Houston Dynamo come back the other way, and tie it seconds later. Yep.

Le Toux misses a 1 on 1 off the post

and on the next possession Geoff Cameron scores from distance to equalize.
