St. Louis steals 1-0 win at Houston on 90'+7 goal

St. Louis City SC beat Houston 1-0 at Shell Energy Stadium. Lukas MacNaughton scored in the seventh minute of stoppage time, finishing a fast break to decide a game that had no goals through 97 minutes.

MacNaughton hit a right-footed shot from the centre of the box into the bottom right corner. Alexandru Matan set it up. It was the only scoring play of the night, and it came in the second half's final moments.

Benjamin Lundt was the player of the game with a Chirp Rating of 8.9. The St. Louis keeper made 6 saves and kept the clean sheet. Houston's Guilherme Augusto led all players with 6 shots and 30 accurate passes, but Houston never found a way through. MacNaughton also led St. Louis with 11 defensive interventions.

St. Louis moves to 15-9-10. Houston falls to 14-9-10. Chirp's Sim gave Houston a 36% chance before the game, so the visitors' win was the less likely result.
