The Q's faced Dallas FC today at Pizza Hut Park. The Q's looked better than they have in the recent past, but appeared to be a step slower (maybe the heat). The Q's took a 2-1 lead in 82nd minute after a powerful goal off the left foot of Arturo Alvarez. Could they hold on the final 8+ minutes? Nope. Defense broke down again and left Kenny Cooper one-on-one at the net vs Joe Cannon. Cooper's tap in goal came at the 86 minute. Dang it. There were some new faces on the pitch for the Q's because Simon Eliott (New Zealand) and Cornell Glen (Trinadad & Tobago) were on international duty + Ramiro Corrales (yellow card suspension) + Bobby Convey (injury). Brandon McDonald and Aaron Pitchkolan were two new names in the midfield. But 1 point from a road game is a positive. The Telefutura broadcast did show Hucks on the bench in uniform, but he did not play. Another road game next week in Seattle. I sure hope that the lads are up for this one. Our first visit to QWest Field was not a pleasant one.
