The Houston Dynamo have loaned defender Alejandro Fuenmayor, midfielders Eric Bird and Juan David Cabezas, and forward Ronaldo Peña to Rio Grande Valley FC for their match at Orange County SC tonight at 7:30 p.m. CDT, the club announced today.
Bird and Peña will look to make their first competitive appearances this season. Bird is returning from suffering an ankle injury in preseason, while Peña is recovering from a left knee injury. Fuenmayor will join RGV FC for the second time this season, having started and played 90 minutes in a 0-0 draw with New Mexico United on April 6, while Cabezas is in line for his third appearance for the club. The Colombian started in both of his appearances: in a 2-1 loss at Tulsa Roughnecks FC on March 29 and a 0-0 draw versus New Mexico United on April 6.
Rio Grande Valley FC look to extend their undefeated streak to three matches when they take on Orange County SC. In their last game out, RGV FC defeated in-state rival San Antonio FC 3-1 in their second Copa Tejas match of the season.
The match will be streamed live on ESPN+ beginning at 7:30 p.m. CT.
