UPDATE: Due to additional strikes in the area, the delay has been extended. An updated start time has yet to be determined.



Lightning in the immediate vicinity of BBVA Compass Stadium has caused a delay in action between the Houston Dynamo and D.C. United.


The game was stopped in the 22nd minute to clear the field. Play is currently scheduled to resume at 4:10 pm ET (MLS LIVE).

Should more lightning be sighted in the area, there could be additional delays. We will provide updates in this space as they are available.
