  Carson, CA (Sports Network) - The Houston Dynamo closed out their regular season with a 3-2 win at Chivas USA on Sunday afternoon at The Home Depot Center.

  Houston (13-8-9) will be the second seed, followed by Seattle, and Chivas USA. Columbus and Chicago clinched in the East, with the other spots to be determined after the New England, Columbus game later on Sunday.

  Andrew Hainault opened the scoring for Houston with his first goal of the season in the 26th minute. Dominic Oduro added his first just three minutes later to give the visitors a 2-0 advantage. Brad Davis assisted on both goals.

  Abe Thompson scored the game winner in the 52nd minute to make it 3-0 after Geoff Cameron played a diagonal ball in the Chivas USA penalty area that he deflected home from five yards out. It Thompson's first goal of the season as well.

  Chivas USA (13-11-6) started chipping away at the lead in the 59th minute when Michael Lahoud pulled one back for the hosts to make it 3-1, and Eduardo Lillingston added an 88th minute penalty kick goal, but that was as close as the Goats could get.
