TORONTO, July 18 (UPI) -- Bobby Boswell's goal in the 74th minute Saturday lifted Houston to a 1-1 Major League Soccer tie with Toronto FC.

He scored the equalizer by knocking in his own rebound, denying the Dynamo (12-2-3) their fifth win in six games.

Both teams earned a point in the standings.

The Reds (7-6-5) took a 1-0 lead when Dwayne De Rosario scored in the 37th minute past Houston goalkeeper Pat Onstad. It was De Rosario's sixth goal this season, one behind teammate Amado Guevara.

Toronto temporarily moved into first place in the Eastern Conference, while Houston, playing its sixth straight road contest, maintained possession of first place overall in the MLS.
