Charlotte FC and Houston Dynamo played out a goalless draw in MLS, with both sides taking a point. The match's main talking point was Ashley Westwood's 71st-minute sending-off after a second yellow card.
The game was punctuated by bookings, with Felipe Andrade, Tim Ream and Djibril Diani all cautioned inside the opening 49 minutes. Westwood's dismissal did not change the pattern: Houston kept the ball but Charlotte remained solid, and neither goalkeeper was seriously threatened.
Houston dominated the ball with 62% possession and completed 62 accurate passes compared with Charlotte's 38% and 34, yet they had zero shots. Charlotte's sole attempt came off target. Expected goals were 0.08 to 0.00, and a point apiece reflected a contest of very few chances.
