"McGlynn scored twice on Sunday as the Dynamo cruised to a 4-1 away win over Los Angeles FC. McGlynn stunned the home fans at BMO Stadium with an arcing, left-footed strike from distance to open the scoring, then found the bottom-left corner for Houston's fourth goal 10 minutes into the second half."
"But with just three games to go until the season pauses for the World Cup, McGlynn has another aim - to reclaim a spot in Mauricio Pochettino's USMNT plans. McGlynn has 13 caps for his country and has scored two goals, though his last six appearances for the USA have all come off the bench and his most recent international outing was against Japan last September."
"Asked about the World Cup, he told the MLS website: "It's on your mind. The number one objective for any player to play in the World Cup. "You definitely think, 'how can I show my ability', but most importantly, I have to show it for Houston and help Houston out, and that'll get me there. "Being in LA, seeing all the signs and everything, it gets you up for it and gets you in the mood to have a performance like tonight. I hope I can just keep doing that until the World Cup, and hope that I'm there.""
"Real Salt Lake are one point above Houston in sixth place, having fallen to a 3-1 defeat against FC Dallas on Saturday. They have lost three of their last four MLS games, with their only victory in that run coming at home to the Portland Timbers."
Jack McGlynn scored two goals as Houston Dynamo defeated Los Angeles FC 4-1 away. He opened the scoring with an arcing left-footed strike from distance and added another goal early in the second half. Guilherme and Mateusz Bogu also scored for Houston, while Nathan Ordaz replied for LAFC. Houston won four of their last five MLS matches and moved to eighth in the Western Conference. With only three MLS games remaining before a World Cup pause, McGlynn focused on reclaiming a place in Mauricio Pochettino’s USMNT plans. He has 13 caps and two goals, with recent appearances coming off the bench. Real Salt Lake visit America First Field, sitting one point above Houston in sixth after a loss to FC Dallas.
