Jonathan Bond achieved his sixth clean sheet in just seven starts for the Houston Dynamo, as the team secured a 0-0 draw against the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday night. In contrast, Angus Gunn went without any concern, marking his first clean sheet since the midfielder had surrendered 18 goals in his first six starts for San Jose (10-8-4).
Bond's impressive 485-minute scoreless run concluded with a 2-1 defeat to St. Louis City, breaking a nine-match unbeaten streak. Midfielder Eduard Löwen made his debut for San Jose after being transferred from St. Louis City on Wednesday, scoring three goals and providing three assists so far this season. San Jose began the day in fourth place in the Western Conference following a 5-1 home loss to Minnesota United and did not manage to climb the ranks.
The Dynamo are leading the all-time series with the Earthquakes 19-11-6, including a 13-3-2 home record. The Earthquakes had a dismal run in August, finishing 0-4-1, and have struggled since a 3-1 road victory over the Portland Timbers in July. Dynamo defender Luccas Halter received a one-match ban due to accumulating yellow cards.
Moving forward, San Jose will face Toronto FC at home on Saturday, while Houston will host Austin FC the same day.
