3 in a row for Dynamo, Ching Scores for National Team

061107_Brian_Ching.jpgIf you happen to be wondering where Dynamo star-forward, Brian Ching, was for Thursday night's Dynamo win over the Colorado Rapids, he was supporting the US Men's National Team in a win over Trinadad and Tabago.

Not only did the National Team chalk one up with a W, Ching scored his fifth international goal in the 29th minute off a long pass from Justin Mapp. Eddie Johnson doubled the lead in the 54th, scoring his 10th goal for the United States and his first since Feb. 19, 2006, as Landon Donovan got his 25th assist to go along with 30 international goals, and with 85 points he moved one ahead of Eric Wynalda for the career lead.

The Houston Dynamo continued their hot streak Sunday evening at Crew Stadium, defeating the Columbus Crew 2-1. The defending MLS Cup champions have now won three in a row after losing five of their six previous matches while extending the Crew's winless streak to six games.

Up next for the Dynamo: June 21st @ Roberston Stadium 8:00 pm, vs.Chivas

Next National Team match: Tuesday, @ 7:00 EST, vs. El Savador
