It was a real test of character for the Boys in Blue after 10-man Houston edged ahead with just 13 minutes remaining.

The hour-long weather break seemed to do more for the Dynamo than it did for NYCFC as the visitors used the time to come up with a stoic gameplan which almost earned an unlikely road win.

However, Dome Torrent's side would not be denied and one of the second half substitutes made the decisive contribution to turn the game in thrilling fashion with two goals in the final seven minutes.

City weren’t at their best over the course of the 90’ but they kept the pressure on the teams above them in the East and rode the storm to earn all three points.
