ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Sebastian Kowalczyk scored his first career goal late in the second half to propel the Houston Dynamo to a 2-1 victory over Minnesota United on Saturday night.
Kowalczyk used an assist from Amine Bassi on a fast break in the 77th minute to bury a right-footed shot from outside the box into the top left corner of the net. Kowalczyk has made 11 starts and 15 appearances for the Dynamo (4-2-1) in his two seasons in the league.
Franco Fragapane started for the first time this season and scored his first goal of the campaign to get Minnesota United (3-2-2) even in the 70th minute. Robin Lod assisted on the equalizer.
The Dynamo took a 1-0 lead into halftime on an own-goal by Minnesota midfielder Alejandro Bran in the 38th minute.
Steve Clark saved four shots for Houston, which has allowed just seven goals this season.
