But Colorado's win wasn't even the biggest story of the evening. Across the border in Mexico City, FC Dallas became the first MLS side EVER to win in Mexico snapping a league-wide 24-game winless streak. Dallas got a second half goal from Honduran Marvin Chávezand goalkeeper Kevin Hartman took care of the rest as they pulled off the 1-0 upset over Pumas UNAM. Pumas admittedly didn't start their strongest side, and Dallas made them pay the price giving them the early leg up in their Group.
