Barnes hit twice for Houston
Krisztian Nemeth gave Kansas the lead before Giles Barnes struck twice, the first a dipping volley, either side of Will Bruin’s glancing header.
Barnes’ terrible backpass let Dom Dwyer in to make it 3-2 before Jermaine Taylor was wrongly dismissed for handling Nemeth’s shot and Feilhaber levelled from the penalty spot.
