SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES vs CHIVAS USA BUCK SHAW STADIUM, Santa Clara, Calif. September 2, 2012 (WEEK 26, MLS Game #256)
6 p.m. PT (NBC SN)
The San Jose Earthquakes will be aiming to put a stranglehold on the Western Conference leadership and the Supporters’ Shield chase when they play host to Chivas USA on Sunday evening at Buck Shaw Stadium before an NBC Sports Network audience. The Quakes lead the West by seven points and the overall table by three, after rolling to a 4-1 win against Colorado last weekend. Chivas are on a two-game road swing, coming back from three goals down for a 3-3 draw at New England at midweek. REFEREE: Mark Geiger.

Alan Gordon scored an 88th-minute equalizer after José Erick Correa scored a very early opener, leaving the teams in a 1-1 tie May 13 at Buck Shaw Stadium. Since San Jose came back into the league in 2008, the Quakes have defeated Chivas USA just once in 10 meetings – a 3-0 home win in 2010. Chivas USA won both meetings between the teams a year ago. Coaches record: Frank Yallop vs. CHV: P4 W1 L0 D3 … Robin Fraser vs. SJ: P3 W2 L0 D1 LAST MEETING (MLS) 5/13: SJ 1, CHV 1 (Gordon 88 – Correa 4) Chivas USA took the lead after just four minutes. James Riley ran down a ball on the overlap on the right and hooked in a low cross that Jose Erick Correa finished deftly from seven yards, curling the ball past Quakes goalkeeper Jon Busch and just inside the far post. But the Quakes once again had some late drama. Sam Garza, a 60th-minute substitute, roamed free on the left wing before delivering a perfectly placed near-post cross that Alan Gordon met with authority, just beating goalkeeper Dan Kennedy to the ball and nodding it inside the back post.

SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES The San Jose Earthquakes extended their long unbeaten streak at Buck Shaw Stadium, strolling to a 4-1 win against the Colorado Rapids on Saturday evening. The Quakes lead the Western Conference and the MLS overall table with 50 points from 26 games. LAST MATCH The Quakes broke on top in the 11th minute. Simon Dawkins sped unchecked down the left wing to collect a well-placed cross-field pass from Alan Gordon. With Colorado right back Hunter Freeman trying to recover, Dawkins cut inside and fired from the top of the box to beat goalkeeper Matt Pickens at the near post.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
San Jose doubled the lead two minutes from the break. Rafael Baca, played down the left wing on a free kick by Ramiro Corrales, broke away toward the end line before delivering a perfect cross to the top of the six-yard box. Gordon snuck in from wide of the back post and tucked it home smartly with the outside of his right foot. The Rapids pulled a goal back in the 54th minute when substitute Tyrone Marshall hammered home an unmarked header off Martin Rivero’s corner kick. But in the 68th minute, Dawkins restored the two-goal cushion by lashing a first-time strike from 16 yards off a pass by Sam Cronin. Gordon put things truly out of reach when he settled a long header from Ramiro Corrales and swiveled to slot it home, left-footed, from 13 yards in the 75th minute. Earthquakes head coach Frank Yallop made three changes to the team that fell 3-1 to the Montréal Impact at Stade Saputo. Ike Opara and Ramiro Corrales came into the back four in place of the suspended Jason Hernandez and Victor Bernardez, and Alan Gordon started in place of the suspended Steven Lenhart. SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES (4-4-2): Jon Busch - Steven Beitashour, Justin Morrow, Ike Opara, Ramiro Corrales - Marvin Chavez (Mehdi Ballouchy 80), Sam Cronin, Rafael Baca, Simon Dawkins (Sam Garza 90) Alan Gordon (Khari Stephenson 78), Chris Wondolowski. TEAM NEWS The Earthquakes extended their unbeaten streak at Buck Shaw Stadium to 11 games, 8-0-3 since a 1-0 loss to Houston in Santa Clara on March 17. Simon Dawkins collected the first two-goal game of his MLS career in the win against Colorado. He has four goals in the last seven games. “I’ve said it all along, I think he could be one of the better players in the league. With his feet, his vision and now he’s adding to that with goals and assists, he’s really coming into form,” said Yallop. “He comes to work every day with a smile on his face and it shows. He tries to create and be dynamic with everything that he does and I’m very happy for him.” Said midfielder Sam Cronin: “You could obviously see his quality last season, but he was getting used to a new country, new league, new players. He’s one of the best attacking, wide midfielders in the league. He’s so good on the ball, breaking guys down one on one, and he’s got a good long-distance shot, which he proved tonight. He’s a really multifaceted player, and we’re happy to have him on our team.” Alan Gordon returned to the Earthquakes lineup and scored two goals. He now has 11 for the season, exactly half the total of goals he scored in his first eight MLS seasons combined. “We all have to chip in with scoring goals,” Dawkins said. “[Wondolowski, Gordon and Lenhart] have done a wonderful job this season, but as an attacking player, you look at them and say, ‘I want to catch them.’ It’s a little competition between us all. It’s healthy. It’s good for the team. And that’s why we’re doing so well right now, because we have that competitive edge about us.” The last player remaining who played in the league’s inaugural season of 1996, Ramiro Corrales, recorded three assists for the first time in his MLS career in the Colorado victory. With Jason Hernandez and Victor Bernardez both suspended, Ike Opara made his first start since May 23, partnering Justin Morrow in central defense. Morrow was making his first start as a center back for the first time since mid-April. CHIVAS USA Chivas USA started their road swing with an improbable point, coming back from a three-goal deficit before ending in a 3-3 draw with the New England Revolution on Wednesday evening at Gillette Stadium. Chivas USA are in seventh place in the Western Conference with 28 points from 24 games. LAST MATCH Saer Sène put the Revolution ahead after just four minutes. Revolution defender Chris Tierney thumped a long diagonal from back to front, and Sène lashed home inside the far post after defender Rauwshan McKenzie failed to clear. McKenzie doubled the Revolution lead in unfortunate fashion seven minutes later. Kelyn Rowe reached the byeline and slotted his cross into a dangerous area, where the Chivas defender diverted the ball on the way through and watched as it found its way past a helpless Dan Kennedy in goal. The deficit increased 10 minutes later as Sène nabbed his second goal of the game. He picked Shalrie Joseph’s pocket on the edge of the penalty area and uncorked a swerving shot to make it 3-0. But Chivas USA responded quickly and ultimately pegged the Revs back. Joseph started the comeback two minutes after the third goal. Nick LaBrocca provided an inviting service from a corner kick and Joseph rose highest to nod home. The former Revolution captain sliced the deficit further in first half stoppage time with a stunning finish from 24 yards, collecting a neat little pass outside the area then curling his effort inside the far post.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
Miller Bolaños completed the comeback two minutes after play resumed. Juan Agudelo latched onto James Riley's throw-in and served a ball toward the far post. Casey Townsend nodded the cross down at the far post for Bolaños to thump home the eventual tying goal. Chivas USA head coach Robin Fraser made two changes to the team that suffered a 6-2 loss to Seattle Sounders FC at The Home Depot Center. Rauwshan McKenzie and Danny Califf came in as the central defense pairing in place of John Valencia and Bobby Burling. CHIVAS USA (4-4-2): Dan Kennedy - James Riley, Rauwshan McKenzie, Danny Califf, Ante Jazic - Tristan Bowen (Juan Pablo Angel 54), Shalrie Joseph, Nick LaBrocca (Oswaldo Minda 83), Miller Bolanos - Juan Agudelo (Laurent Courtois 76), Casey Townsend. TEAM NEWS The three goals scored by Chivas USA were their season-high, and the most they’d scored in a game since the last time they played New England, a 3-2 in Foxborough last Aug. 6. “Clearly we didn’t start off well enough, and … we weren’t urgent enough in the beginning. As the game went on we got better and it was definitely a good thing to see improvement as we went forward, and then good resiliency to get the goals and get back into it,” said Chivas USA head coach Robin Fraser. Chivas USA have scored five goals in their last two games – more than they had scored in the previous seven games, from June 23-Aug. 18, combined. “Certainly we’ve created more chances over the last couple of games than we have pretty much all year. So we like to feel like we’re moving in the right direction there. … It’s just been things we’ve been talking about,” said Fraser. “I think a lot for the year is aggressive running, aggressive running in behind, playing balls in behind, and putting balls into dangerous spots. We don’t score if we don’t put balls in dangerous spots and I think we’ve done a better job of that in the past two games.” Said Shalrie Joseph: “I think it gives us confidence that we can score goals. Now we have to get back to locking it down and being tougher to play against defensively, a hallmark for us in the beginning of the season. But now that we have the confidence that we can score goals, I think we also have the confidence that we can lock it down. So it’s a good step.” Joseph had a match to remember, his first against his former club. Joseph scored two goals in a game for the fourth time in his career, his first goal since May 12, when he scored his only goal this year for the Revolution. “It feels good to score two goals; it doesn’t matter what team,” Joseph said. “It’s bittersweet that it’s against my old team, and it feels good. But it’s more than about me right now. It’s about a team trying to make a playoff run. That’s what we’ve got to look forward to.” Said Fraser: “On the field he’s such an impactful player because he’s such a presence. He’s a big presence for us and for teams to be successful you need a couple players like that and certainly he adds that to our team.” After Chivas conceded six goals at the weekend, Danny Califf was reinstalled at one center back position after not featuring in the Seattle game. At the other, Rauwshan McKenzie made his first start since July 21. “I think certainly in the first 20, 25 minutes we were showing them that we were trying to get used to playing together again, and our communication and stuff like that,” Califf said. “So there were a few miscues I think, but after we sorted that out I think we had a pretty solid combination and pretty solid partnership.” Said Fraser: “We talked about being compact. I felt like we weren’t as disciplined in the beginning of the game as we would like to have been. As the game went on we got better and defensively we got better and as a result guys were able to push forward and create some good opportunities and show good character.” Nick LaBrocca collected his first assist of the 2012 season, putting in the corner kick that sent Chivas on their way to their comeback.

San Jose holds a three-point advantage over Sporting Kansas City (14-7-5, 47 pts.) in the Supporters’ Shield race.

Unbeaten Streak Continues at Buck Shaw The Earthquakes extended their Buck Shaw Stadium unbeaten streak to 14 games after Saturday’s 4-1 win against Colorado. The Rapids were the last team to beat San Jose at their primary home venue, winning 2-1 on Aug. 13, 2011. The Earthquakes are 8-0-3 at Buck Shaw this season and 9-1-3 at home including matches played at AT&T Park and Stanford Stadium. Corrales Moves to No. 5 on Club’s All-Time Assists List Ramiro Corrales’ pair of assists in San Jose’s 4-1 win against Colorado leapfrogged the veteran defender past Landon Donovan and Eric Wynalda for No. 5 on the club’s all-time assists list. Corrales has 30 career assists with the Earthquakes, one behind Dwayne De Rosario for No. 4 on the list. At 35 years old, Corrales is second on the team with eight assists this season, one off his career best nine in 2002. Ballouchy Makes San Jose Debut Former Santa Clara Broncos All-American midfielder Mehdi Ballouchy made his Earthquakes debut in Saturday’s 4-1 win against the Colorado Rapids after subbing on for Marvin Chavez in the 80th minute. San Jose acquired Ballouchy in a trade with the New York Red Bulls for a 2013 international player slot and a conditional 2013 MLS SuperDraft pick on July 30. Iron Man Morrow Quakes all-star defender Justin Morrow has played every minute of San Jose’s 26 games this season. He is one of five players in MLS to see the field in each of his club’s 26 matches in 2012. The list also includes Colorado’s Matt Pickens and Drew Moor, Sporting Kansas City’s Jimmy Nielsen and Vancouver’s Lee Young-Pyo. Twice As Nice Chris Wondolowski (18) and Alan Gordon (11) are the first Earthquakes duo to score double-digit goals in the same season since Ronald Cerritos (12), Lawrence Lozzano (10) and Jeff Baicher (10) in 1997. San Jose has a chance to match the 1997 trio if Steven Lenhart (8) can tally twice more before season’s end. Wondolowski Approaching MLS Single Season Record for Game-Winning Goals Chris Wondolowski is one game-winning goal away from tying an MLS record that he shares with former LA Galaxy forward Carlos Ruiz. Wondolowski (2010) and Ruiz (2002) have each recorded nine game-winning goals in a single season. San Jose’s striker has scored the game winner in eight of San Jose’s 15 victories to date. Wondolowski Closing in on Club Scoring Mark Chris Wondolowski is six goals away from matching Ronald Cerritos’ club record for career goals scored. Cerritos scored 61 goals in 148 games over six seasons in San Jose. Meanwhile, Wondolowski has 55 goals in 98 games over five seasons for the Earthquakes. Additionally, Wondolowski’s goal against Montreal on Aug. 18 tied his club record for tallies in a single season with 18.

Additionally, San Jose leads the league with 33 second-half goals and a +19 goal differential in the second half. Single Season Goals Record The San Jose Earthquakes continue to close in on the club’s single season record for goals scored. After a 4-1 win against the Colorado Rapids, the Earthquakes have scored 52 goals in 2012 to lead the league. That total is the most scored in San Jose since the club returned to MLS in 2008 and three off the benchmark of 55 set by the San Jose Clash in 1997. More Goals The Earthquakes are the 10th team in MLS history to have 52 goals after 26 games. They are aiming to become the first team to score two goals per game since the LA Galaxy scored 52 times in 26 games in 2001. Only 10 teams have averaged two or more goals per game for an entire season.

Earthquakes Approaching Club Record for Wins in Single Season The San Jose Earthquakes are four wins away from matching their club record set in 1999 for wins in a single season. At 15-6-5, San Jose has eight games remaining to tie the record. In 1999, San Jose finished 19-13, but seven of those wins came via shootout. San Jose was 18-4-10 in 2005 and finished the season with a club record 64 points. Race for the Budweiser Golden Boot Chris Wondolowski remains in front of the pack in the race for the Budweiser Golden Boot. The Danville native has 18 goals, four more than his closest pursuers, New York’s Kenny Cooper and Real Salt Lake’s Alvaro Saborio.

San Jose has also scored an MLS record seven second half stoppage-time goals.

Red‐and‐White Finish Three‐Game, Nine‐Day Stretch at San Jose Chivas USA continues its Western Conference push when it travels to face its Northern California rival the San Jose Earthquakes, Sunday, Sept. 2 at Buck Shaw Stadium, for a 6:00 pm PT match. The game will broadcast on television, live on NBC Sports Network in English. For more information please visit cdchivasusa.com. Follow us on Twitter @cdchivasusa and Facebook.com/chivasusa Chivas USA (7-10-7, 28 pts.) and the New England Revolution (6-14-6, 24 points) played to a 3-3 draw Wednesday night at Gillette Stadium before a crowd of 10,945. The Revs started the scoring with three straight goals – two by Saer Sene – within the match’s first 21 minutes. Chivas USA stormed back with three unanswered goals, two by Shalrie Joseph and the third by Miller Bolaños. With the tie Chivas USA continues its solid play on the road, as it is unbeaten in nine of its 11 games away from home. PREVIOUS MATCH Goats Fight Back to Take Road Point in New England After twenty-one minutes in New England, Chivas USA found itself in a hole. A fourth-minute strike by Saer Sene, an 11th minute Redand-White own goal, and another goal by Sene in the 21st minute put the home side ahead 3-0. It was a mountain to climb for Chivas USA, but they quickly showed they were up to the challenge. In the 23rd minute Shalrie Joseph, returning to his former club, headed-in his first goal with Chivas USA off Nick LaBrocca´s corner kick. As the first half entered stoppage time, Joseph received a pass from Juan Agudelo near the semi-circle and unleashed a powerful strike that beat Revs’ goalkeeper Matt Reis near the right post to draw the Rojiblancos closer at 3-2. The Goats came out in the second half fast, scoring in the 47th minute. Agudelo controlled the ball outside the right side of the box, crossed it to fellow forward Casey Townsend, who set up Miller Bolaños to fire past Reis for his third goal of the seaso, tying the match at 3-3. Agudelo’s effective passing on the night helped him record his second and third assists on the season. The Rojiblancos continued to advance forward and pushed for all three points, as they outshot the Revs 20-15 for the match. But there would be no more goals, and the teams shared the points after 90 minutes GOATS NOTES & FACTS Vergara and Fuentes Acquire Complete Chivas USA Ownership Chivas USA announced Wednesday that Jorge Vergara and Angelica Fuentes have acquired the remaining 50 percent of the franchise from their former partners, Antonio and Lorenzo Cue, making Vergara and Fuentes the absolute owners of MLS’ Chivas USA. “We are thrilled to acquire the remaining 50 percent of Chivas USA,” said Fuentes. “We are very excited about the future that Chivas USA will have,” added Vergara.
