In a dramatic turn of events, Israeli midfielder Ran Benjamin played a crucial role in FC Dallas's 2-2 draw against Houston Dynamo on October 26th. Benjamin, who came on as a substitute in the 79th minute, earned a penalty in the 101st minute after being fouled in the box. Petar Musa converted the penalty, securing a vital point for Dallas and keeping them in third place in the Western Conference standings. The match was tied 1-1 when Benjamin entered, and Dallas fell behind 2-1 from a penalty before his late heroics.
Elsewhere in Major League Soccer, Tai Baribo scored his second consecutive goal, this time from a penalty kick, but it wasn't enough to prevent his team, D.C. United, from a heavy 4-1 defeat against Orlando City. Antoine Griezmann was instrumental for Orlando, contributing two goals and an assist. Baribo's goal, scored in first-half stoppage time, only managed to reduce the deficit to 2-1 at the time.
Additionally, Dor Turgeman was part of the New England Revolution team that secured a 1-0 victory over Robert Lewandowski's Chicago Fire.
