HOUSTON, May 10 (UPI) -- Dwayne De Rosario scored a penalty shot in the 86th minute Saturday, delivering the Houston Dynamo a 2-1 win over Colorado for its first win of the MLS season.

Brian Ching scored his first goal of the season shortly before halftime, but the Rapids answered midway through the second half when Omar Cummings tied the score with 20 minutes to play.

Colorado's Ugo Ihemelu was called for handling the ball inside his own area in the 85th minute and De Rosario secured three points for the defending MLS champions.

Ching missed a chance at another goal when he was alone with Rapids goalkeeper Bouna Coundoul, but kicked the ball over the crossbar.
