I realize that we hit the post and the crossbar and had a Barrios attempt (all he's good for these days) cleared off the line but, Luchi really needs to reexamine his away strategy. Because whatever the hell we're doing, it's trash.
FC Dallas is 7-0-3 at home and 1-5-3 on the road. That is the best home record in the West, and the second-worst road record in the West. Only the Columbus Crew can claim a more disparate home/away record. I can't imagine that there would be environmental factors which would favor FC Dallas that heavily, and in 2020 it can't have been the crowd. Coaching? Travel factors that Dallas handles differently than other teams?
tbf, they actually won two games away from Frisco - the late win in Nashville, which was maybe one of their better performances, was a neutral site, makeup game from the OTown tournament. maybe only important just to say they "can" win on the road, just generally aren't very good at it.
