The Houston Dash look to surpass their largest crowd of the year when they return to Shell Energy Stadium at 6 p.m. CT on Sunday, Oct. 8 for the final home match of the regular season. The largest crowd to support the team this season was set in June when 8,128 fans attended the match against OL Reign at Shell Energy Stadium.
Sunday’s match against Angel City FC is pivotal as the Dash look to secure a playoff berth for the second consecutive season. The team has won back-to-back games and looks to cement a playoff spot with two matches remaining. Both Angel City FC and the Orlando Pride, Houston’s next opponent, are separated by two points or less in the league table.
For as low as $15 dollars, fans can attend the match and the Dash Bash, which features a postgame concert presented by Verizon. Vanilla Ice, Tone Loc and Rob Base will take the stage to close Fan Appreciation Week. For tickets and additional information, visit HoustonDash.com.
