DallasScores in draw
Moore scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 3-3 draw versus St. Louis City.
Analysis: Moore leveled the scoring through a fine right-footed attempt after battling for the ball in the opposing box during the 18th minute against St. Louis. The goal was his first of the season and came on a rare chance to move forward from his defensive role. He does provide some versatility, which has allowed him to play on either flank when Bernard Kamungo or Herman Johansson are unavailable, a scenario that could arise in the short term given that the latter left Sunday's match with a muscle issue.
Signs new contract
Moore signed a new contract with FC Dallas until the end of the 2027/28 MLS season Friday. The deal also includes an option for the 2028/29 campaign.
Analysis: Moore has been a steady presence on the right side of the defensive line for Dallas and should continue to do so as long as he stays healthy. The right-back has started in all but one of his 18 league outings in 2026, recording one assist and averaging 1.3 crosses and 3.6 clearances per contest.
Makes three tackles
Moore took two shots (one on goal), crossed four times inaccurately and made three tackles (winning all three) during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Minnesota.
Analysis: Moore finished with the second most shots, crosses and tackles on the team while being part of the Dallas back line that allowed just one goal in the defeat. The defender has combined for three shots, two chances created and eight crosses over his last three appearances.
