Big D Soccer: FCD-SMU post-game reaction

FC Dallas falls 2-1 to U.S. Under-23 National Team

Quote:

FC Dallas winger Brek Shea, who was called into national team duty over the weekend, scored the game-winner for Caleb Porter’s side in the 51st minute. Dallas ... earned a corner kick in the 15th minute. Colombian forward Fabian Castillo took the kick, lining a cross to the center of the six-yard box, where Andrew Jacobson beat his defender to the ball and nodded a hard finish into the back of the net to give FC Dallas a 1-0 advantage. The U.S. U-23s found an equalizer just four minutes later on a corner kick taken by Freddy Adu. An exact copy of Jacobson’s goal, Adu picked out Ike Opara at the top of the box and the defender headed a shot to the back post to level the score, 1-1. FC Dallas got a boost in the 36th minute when FC Dallas head coach Schellas Hyndman brought on 2010 MLS MVP David Ferreira for the first time since he suffered a season-ending injury on April 23, 2011.

David Ferreira is back. The 2010 MLS MVP surprisingly went a full 90 minutes on Saturday night in a 1-1 tie against Swedish side BK Häcken, only his second match since fracturing his ankle in a league match back in April 2011. The Colombian’s presence lifted FC Dallas, which buzzed like the team of old. The MLS side dominated possession and eventually took the lead in first-half stoppage time when right winger Fabian Castillo collected a Zach Loyd cross at the top of the six-yard box and fired a diagonal shot inside the far post.
