AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Houston controlled far more of the ball, holding 65% possession and outshooting the hosts 18 to 9, with five efforts on target to Charlotte's three. Yet Kristijan Kahlina's goal remained unbreached, and Charlotte, despite seeing far less of the ball, matched their visitors' resolve at the back throughout the ninety minutes.
Discipline proved costly for the home side, who finished with a man fewer after picking up a red card, while also collecting five yellow cards to Houston's four across a physical contest that produced 24 fouls in total. Neither team could force the decisive moment, and the game finished level.
Guilherme was rated the top performer on the pitch with an 8.21 mark, edging out teammate Artur, though neither forward found the net in a goalless affair.
Houston's dominance in possession, at 65% to Charlotte's 35%, underlined how much of the match they controlled without managing to convert it into a goal.

Level sides, home ground swings it — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Major League Soccer home advantage gives Charlotte the lean. The draw at 28% is what level sides usually produce.
Why Charlotte in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1612 to 1598. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,560 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). Major League Soccer home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (25.8% vs 30.2%). Major League Soccer homes won 49.4% of 5,132 games vs 44.9% across all 99,727 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 46%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Houston Dynamo hold 6 more possession points (52 to 46 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 40.2% across 5,567 games, from 44.0% when styles were level.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Houston Dynamo win?
