Chris Wondolowski passed Landon Donovan for most career goals last week. Fast forward to this week and Wondo surpassed the expectations in the San Jose Earthquakes’ 2-1 win over Toronto FC at BMO Field on Sunday night.
Check out the Quakes’ starting lineup below.

Sure, Toronto FC got on the board first, but that was their lone goal of the game. Richie Laryea, a Toronto native, notched his first goal in his hometown in the 28th minute.
The officials handed Tommy Thompson a yellow card in the 34th minute, but that didn’t get in the way of the Quakes’ success on the road.
Wondo tied the game 1-1 in the 37th minute. As a result, Wondo recorded his 149th career goal and the Quakes’ social media staff reportedly needed a new hashtag for the goal king.
The game was tied 1-1 at the end of the first half. San Jose settled for the draw, despite the fact Cristian Espinoza almost scored the go-ahead goal, but it went just wide of the net.
The second half featured a lot of yellow cards. Liam Fraser received a yellow card for his hard tackle on Tommy Thompson in the 61st minute. Then, back-to-back yellow cards were handed to Cristian Espinoza and Magnus Eriksson in a five-minute span.
The Quakes’ first substitution of the game occurred in the 73rd minute as Danny Hoesen replaced Magnus Eriksson.
Wondo scored the go-ahead goal for a 2-1 lead in the 81st minute. As a result, Wondo recorded his 150th career goal and the Quakes’ social media staff reminded the blue and black fanbase that they weren’t dreaming. Wondo now stands as the all-time MLS leader in game-winning goals with 42.
The Quakes won 2-1. With the win, San Jose has a two-game winning streak.
The Quakes take on DC United at Audi Field on Saturday, June 1 at 5:00 pm PT.
