KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) The Houston Dynamo held off Sporting Kansas City after Seth Sinovic scored his first career goal in the second half, falling 1-0 on Wednesday night but advancing to the Eastern Conference finals with a 2-1 aggregate-goal result. The Dynamo won the opening leg Sunday behind goals from Adam Moffat and Will Bruin, and then did enough on defense just barely to advance to its second straight conference title game. Houston defeated Sporting KC last year to reach the MLS Cup finals. The Dynamo will open the conference finals on the road against D.C. United or the New York Red Bells in another two-game, aggregate goal series scheduled to begin Sunday.
