Following a 2-2 draw against FC Dallas, the Dynamo secured a spot in the 2026 MLS playoffs, marking their third postseason appearance in the last four seasons.
In the decisive match against FC Dallas, Héctor Herrera leveled the score with a header after Mateusz Bogusz had put Houston ahead via a penalty.
