HOUSTON (AP) — Jozy Altidore scored his third goal in four games and Toronto FC played to a 1-1 tie with the 10-man Houston Dynamo on Sunday night in a game postponed Saturday because of rain.

Toronto (10-7-7) had its four-game winning streak snapped. Houston (4-10-9) is winless in its six games.

Altidore tied it in the 24th minute. Sebastian Giovinco rolled a corner kick to the penalty spot and Altidore put it into the net with a one touch. Altidore's sliding left-footed shot in the 64th minute hit the post.

Cristian Maidana scored from a difficult angle in the eighth minute after Mauro Manotas chipped the defense. But the Dynamo played a man down for the entire second half. Abdoulie Mansally received a red card in first-half stoppage time for taking down Giovinco on a breakaway.

It was the fifth consecutive draw in the series. The last win for either team came in 2011.
