09/05/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Geovanni scored a goal and assisted on another to propel the San Jose Earthquakes to a 2-1 win over the Houston Dynamo at Robertson Stadium on Sunday.
The Brazilian was making his first Major League Soccer start since being signed as a Designated Player, and he didn't disappoint as he set up the opening goal after six minutes, which was finished off by Khari Stephenson.
Houston leveled the match on the stroke of halftime through Brad Davis, but Geovanni's goal in the 64th minute was enough for San Jose to claim its third win in the last four games.
The Dynamo have now won just once in their last 13 matches, and their playoff hopes have all but evaporated.
It took the visitors less than six minutes to open the scoring as Geovanni got down the right wing and delivered a pinpoint cross into the path of Stephenson, who rolled a first-time shot inside the far post.
Houston tried to respond through Dominic Oduro, but after he created room for a shot from inside the penalty area, Oduro smashed the ball well over the net.
However, the Dynamo ended the first half in style as Brian Mullan's shot was blocked by goalkeeper Jon Busch, which gave Mullan the chance to collect the rebound and serve a cross into the middle of the box for Davis to redirect inside the left post.
Houston had the brighter start in the second half and Cam Weaver should have put his team in front when he headed a corner kick wide from six yards.
But just one minute later, Weaver paid for his wastefulness as Cornell Glen had the ball poked away by a Houston defender inside the area, only for it to fall to Geovanni, who lashed it into the lower-left corner with a first-time shot.
The Earthquakes made things tougher on themselves in the 82nd minute when Sam Cronin received a straight red card for a poor tackle on Houston's Andrew Hainault, but the best chance that Houston had to level the match came in the 90th minute when Geoff Cameron rolled a shot wide from 10 yards.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
