Houston Dynamo’s Héctor Herrera was given a red card for allegedly spitting at the referee during their match against the Seattle Sounders in the MLS Cup Playoffs. This incident occurred as Houston was already facing a tough battle after losing the first game in Seattle.
The experienced midfielder, Héctor Herrera, found himself in hot water when he was caught on camera spitting at the referee following a disagreement over a previous foul call. Despite trying to commit the offense discreetly, VAR technology quickly detected the incident and Herrera was promptly sent off.
This unfortunate turn of events comes as another blow to Houston Dynamo, who had already lost Coco Carrasquilla to a red card in the previous game. With Herrera now out of the equation, the team is left without their captain and key playmaker.
The loss of both Carrasquilla and Herrera has left Houston Dynamo in a precarious position as they fight to stay alive in the playoffs. The team will now have to regroup and find a way to overcome these setbacks if they hope to advance further in the competition.
Despite the challenges they face, Houston Dynamo will need to rally together and show resilience in the face of adversity. The road ahead may be difficult, but with determination and teamwork, they still have a chance to turn things around and emerge victorious in the playoffs.
