HOUSTON, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- Brian Ching's third goal of the game in the 85th minute Saturday boosted Houston to a 4-3 decision over Chicago.

Ching got his first goal in the 31st minute for 1-0 Houston lead and added two more tallies in the second half, including one on a bicycle kick.

The game-winner came when Ching positioned himself under a corner kick from Richard Mulrooney and headed a shot inside the right post from about 6 yards out for his sixth of the season.

Houston (6-10-5) recorded its first win since May 22, logging six losses and four draws in the meantime.

Calen Carr and Wilman Conde scored for Chicago (6-6-6), which also got an own goal from the Dynamo's Bobby Bowell.
