Frisco, Texas – FC Dallas recorded a decisive 3-0 victory over St. Louis CITY SC at Toyota Stadium on Saturday, July 19, 2025. This match marked a significant moment for FC Dallas, who ended their seven-game winless streak at home and secured only their second win of the season at their home ground. The result improved FC Dallas’ record to 6 wins, 10 losses, and 7 draws, propelling them to 12th place in the Western Conference standings.

St. Louis CITY SC, in contrast, suffered a setback, dropping its record to 4 wins, 13 losses, and 6 draws. The loss left the team 12 points adrift from the final playoff spot in the MLS Western Conference, creating a challenging situation with just 11 games remaining in the season.

The match attracted a crowd of 11,004 fans, coinciding with a special ’90s night event at the stadium. Fans were treated to an entertaining display, including standout performances from FC Dallas forwards, particularly Petar Musa, who scored two goals to elevate his season total to 11, leading his team in scoring.

The first goal came from Kaick Ferreira, who netted his inaugural career MLS goal in the 24th minute, an achievement facilitated by a well-executed assist from Sebastian Lletget. This goal also marked Lletget’s 50th career MLS assist and his 18th since joining FC Dallas in 2022.

After Ferreira’s breakthrough, FC Dallas continued to build its momentum. Petar Musa struck first in the 79th minute, finishing expertly in a one-on-one situation against St. Louis goalkeeper Roman Burki. Musa’s efforts didn’t stop there; he later secured his second goal of the match from the penalty spot in the 88th minute, awarded due to a foul on his teammate Sam Sarver.

On the defensive side, FC Dallas goalkeeper Maarten Paes achieved his third clean sheet of the season, contributing with two key saves throughout the match. St. Louis faced difficulties in mounting a comeback, and Interim Coach David Critchley acknowledged the team’s struggle to regain their footing after allowing the first goal. The only notable pressure St. Louis exerted came early in the match when Marcel Hartel struck the crossbar in the 4th minute, representing their best chance to score.

FC Dallas will continue its campaign with a match against New York City FC on July 25 at 7:30 p.m. CT, which will be available for live streaming on MLS Season Pass on Apple TV. Meanwhile, St. Louis CITY SC’s next match is set for July 26 against Minnesota United at Energizer Park, with hopes of bouncing back from this defeat.
