Jesús Ferreira and Ryan Hollingshead scored four minutes apart early in the second half to give FC Dallas (7-6-5) a 2-0 lead. Ferreira tapped home Michael Barrios’ pass on a fast break. Hollingshead scored on a deflected shot from distance, sneaking it inside the near post with goalkeeper Zac MacMath going the other way.
