FRISCO, Texas -- Dwayne De Rosario, Eddie Robinson and Stuart Holden scored goals and the Houston Dynamo defeated FC Dallas 3-0 on Sunday.
Houston pulled into a tie with Chivas USA for first place in the Western Division. FC Dallas lost for the fifth time in its past seven games.
De Rosario scored the game's first goal and his sixth of the year in first-half stoppage time. The ball bounced off the foot of FC Dallas' Pablo Ricchetti and directly to De Rosario, who dribbled before firing a right-footed shot from 15 meters into the right post for the goal.
Eddie Robinson scored in the 62nd minute on a header from the top of the goalie's box. Richard Mulrooney set up the score with a corner kick from the right side.
