Impact Aliyu had been shown the card in the 90+11th minute of that match, a decision that initially looked set to keep him out of Wednesday's trip to Vancouver. The overturned ruling now makes him eligible to feature in that match after all. His reinstatement gives the club a fuller set of options on the wing heading into the match.

Agustin Resch - Produces seven clearances Resch generated two tackles (one won) and seven clearances in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Resch turned in a solid defensive performance Saturday, recording seven clearances, two tackles, and one block while helping secure a clean sheet against the Galaxy. Over his last five MLS appearances, he has totaled 25 clearances, nine tackles, and four blocks while contributing to four clean sheets. That run underscores not only his consistency but also the team's strong collective defensive effort.

Jonathan Bond - Holds onto clean sheet Bond registered no saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Bond wasn't required to make a save as he cruised to his seventh clean sheet of the season. That already matches his total from 2025 and comes seven matches sooner. Across 19 league appearances, he's conceded 24 goals while recording 47 saves. The keeper will face off with Vancouver for the next match on Wednesday, who have scored five goals in the last five contests. Bond had kept a clean sheet with three saves against the opponent during their last outing on May 17.

Ibrahim Aliyu - Shown red card in win Aliyu received a red card as a substitute in stoppage time of Saturday's 1-0 win over Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Aliyu spent just a few minutes on the field before being booked twice for his consistent fouling in the final moments of the match. This means the attacker will be unable to take part in the midweek trip to Vancouver, where Guilherme and Mateusz Bogusz will likely remain the top options on the wings. After that, the Nigerian will be available again to face St. Louis City.

Antonio Carlos - On bench for Galaxy match Carlos (knee) is on the bench for the weekend's meeting with Los Angeles Galaxy.

Impact Carlos could finally see official action, having made steady progress in his recovery from an injury that kept him out since late May. He was a frequent starter over the opening stretch of the season, and he was usually able to record plenty of clearances and a variety of other defensive numbers. Thus, he'll eventually threaten Lucas Halter and Agustin Resch for center-back spots.

Antonio Carlos - Upgraded to questionable Carlos (knee) is now questionable for Saturday's clash with Los Angeles Galaxy after being ruled out for multiple matches.

Impact Carlos has improved from a confirmed absence to questionable for the first time since May, which is an encouraging sign for a Houston defense that has been reshuffling its center-back pairing in his absence. If he can play, the back line gets back its most physically commanding central option, and he could come immediately into contention with current starters Agustin Resch and Lucas Halter.

Marcelo Saracchi - Listed as unavailable Saracchi (not injury related) is out for Saturday's game against the Galaxy.

Impact Saracchi is listed as unavailable "not due to injury", so there's a good chance he's sorting out his visa papers to be eligible. His next chance to play will come against the Whitecaps on Wednesday, Aug. 19.

AUGUST 11 • MLSSOCCER.COM

Marcelo Saracchi - Signs with Houston Dynamo Saracchi has joined Houston Dynamo FC on a full transfer through the 2028-29 season, with club options through 2030-31, the club announced.

Impact Saracchi spent last season on loan at Celtic, making 27 appearances across all competitions with one goal and two assists, before returning to Boca Juniors and now making a permanent move to MLS. His career has taken him through Uruguay's Danubio, River Plate, RB Leipzig, a loan at Galatasaray, and Levante before he settled in Argentina with Boca in 2023. He gives Houston a left-back with experience across several top leagues and continental competitions and is also a senior Uruguay international with 11 caps, most recently featuring in October 2025 friendlies. He will compete with Lawrence Ennali for a starting spot down the left.

Jack McGlynn - Back-to-back assists McGlynn assisted once to go with four crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-0 win against New England Revolution.

Impact McGlynn was Houston's most creative presence in Saturday's 2-0 win over New England, delivering the corner from the left side in the 63rd minute that Agustin Resch powered home for the decisive second goal, also registering four crosses, three corners and four chances created across his 90 minutes. The midfielder has now registered one assist and four chances created in back-to-back MLS appearances, establishing himself as the primary creative outlet in a Dynamo side that has found consistency and momentum at the right time of the Western Conference season.

Agustin Resch - First MLS goal Resch scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 win versus New England Revolution.

Impact Resch delivered the decisive second goal of Saturday's 2-0 win over New England, rising above the Revolution defense to power a commanding header into the net from Jack McGlynn's corner delivery in the 63rd minute for his first MLS goal, also registering two tackles, two interceptions and nine clearances across 90 minutes in a complete defensive and offensive display from the center-back. The Argentine has now accumulated 11 tackles across his last five MLS appearances, combining aerial dominance at both ends of the pitch with the defensive leadership that has been central to Houston's three consecutive wins since the World Cup break.

Jonathan Bond - Third consecutive clean sheet Bond registered two saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 2-0 win versus New England Revolution.

Impact Bond was called into action as early as the 90th second of Saturday's 2-0 win over New England, diving low to parry away Peyton Miller's shot before settling into a composed performance that produced two saves across 90 minutes and a third consecutive clean sheet. The goalkeeper has now made 11 saves across his last three MLS appearances, contributing to a Houston defensive run that has been as important as the attacking output in their unbeaten streak since the World Cup break. Bond heads into the LA Galaxy fixture having established himself as one of the most in-form goalkeepers in the Western Conference, with his consistency and shot-stopping quality a foundation upon which Houston's top-three push is being built.

Antonio Carlos - Upgraded to questionable Carlos (knee) is facing a late decision on his availability ahead of Saturday's visit to New England Revolution, per the MLS injury report.

Impact Carlos was inactive throughout July as he required time to recover from his knee injury, but his questionable status makes it possible for him to return to action in the first few weeks of August. The defender would typically be a strong contender to Erik Sviatchenko, Lucas Halter and Agustin Resch for center-back spots. However, it remains to be seen when the Brazilian will be ready for significant minutes on the field.
