HOUSTON (AP) — Mateusz Bogusz scored two goals, his first multi-goal game in MLS since 2024, and Jonathan Bond had four saves to help the Houston Dynamo beat Austin FC 3-0 on Saturday night.
The Dynamo (8-6-2) are unbeaten in four straight.
Guilherme Santos — known simply as “Guilherme” — added a goal and two assists for Houston.
Ezequiel Ponce, on the counter-attack, played a first-touch cross from the right side to Bogusz for a tap-in goal in the 12th minute. Bogusz, in the 29th, outraced the defense to long ball-ahead played by Guilherme and rolled a first-touch shot inside the back post to make it 2-0.
Bogusz, who had a career-high 15 goals last season, has four goals in 16 appearances (15 starts) this season.
Guilherme beat goalkeeper Brad Stuver one on one to give Houston a three-goal lead in the 32nd minute.
Bond had his fourth shutout this season.
Austin (4-8-5), which beat Seattle 3-1 at home on Wednesday, has lost four of its last five.
Stuver finished with one save.
Austin beat the Dynamo 2-0 at home on April 25.
