The scoreline says 2–1; by chance quality the match ran 1.03–1.21.

The brain read

Little between them on chances created — the xG read 1–1.2, shots 12–9 with 6–4 on target. Houston Dynamo's finishing ran hot — 2 from 1 xG, 6 of 12 shots on target (a finishing read inferred from shots on target and goals vs xG — not measured shot placement). On chances created the game was tighter than the 2–1 suggests.

A second opinion written by rule from the numbers on this page — where the shot picture and the xG disagree, it says so rather than picking a winner. Backward-looking only; it claims nothing about any future result.
