SAN JOSE — Simon Becher had only scored two goals throughout the 2026 season.

Becher doubled his goal total with a brace as St. Louis CITY defeated the San Jose Earthquakes 3-1 on Saturday evening at PayPal Park.

San Jose has lost three out of its last four matches and has only earned one point since coming out of the World Cup break. St. Louis CITY has won five of its past six matches and have earned points in 10 consecutive matches.

St. Louis CITY (8-6-5-29 points) drew first blood in the eighth minute. Sang Bin Jeong found Conrad Wallem inside the box. Wallem centered the ball into the middle where Daniel Edleman beat Quakes goalie Angus Gunn with a one-timer to the right corner for his third goal of the season.

It was another slow start for San Jose (10-6-3-33 points) as they found themselves chasing the game early in the match. They have conceded the first goal in three of its past four matches.

CITY doubled its lead off of a set piece in the 27th minute. Eduard Löwen sent in a corner kick perfectly to an unmarked Simon Becher who headed the ball past Gunn for his second goal of the season. San Jose was caught flat footed as Becher was able to get behind Quakes fullback Daniel Munie for the easy goal.

The Earthquakes had an uninspiring first half as they played on the heels defending St. Louis’ attack in the opening 45 minutes.

San Jose responded right away to start the second half by cutting their deficit in half. Timo Werner’s free kick into the box was headed out by CITY defender Timo Baumgarti. Quakes midfielder Beau Leroux one-timed the ball out of midair and past CITY goalkeeper Roman Burki for his third goal of the season in the 47th minute.

St. Louis regained its two-goal lead in the 55th minute. A long ball was chased down by Tomas Totland down the left wing. Totland calmly centered the ball into the middle of the box where a crashing Becher one-timed the ball into the back of the net with a high right footed shot to record his brace and fourth goal of the season.

Tempers flared late in the match when Wellem made a hard foul against Werner as he pushed him out of bounds along the sideline in the 78th minute. A skirmish ensued with players pushing and shoving. Wellem was issued a yellow card.

The Quakes weren’t able to muster any more offense the rest of the match as St. Louis controlled the possession and the scoring chances in the final 10 minutes of the match.

Burki finished with one save on the two shots on target to earn the victory. Gunn had four saves on seven shots in the losing effort.

GAME NOTES: San Jose finished with four corner kicks. St. Louis had five.

UP NEXT: San Jose travels down to Los Angeles for the 106th California Classico on Wednesday August 19th at 7:30pm Dignity Health Sports Park.

Despite a strong showing in the first 75 minutes of their game against FC Cincinnati, the San Jose Earthquakes found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory late losing to the FC Cincinnati 4-2 at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati Saturday.

Daniel Munie opened the scoring for the Earthquakes in the 26th minute off of an assist from star forward Timo Wener. Munie’s goal, his fourth of the season, gave the Quakes an early lead, but it wouldn’t last very long. Just seven minutes later, Bryan Ramirez tied things up for FC Cincinnati with his first goal of the 2026 campaign. 

The game remained deadlocked at a goal apiece heading into the half-time break, but the Quakes’ German superstar, Timo Werner, scored his fifth goal and second goal contribution of the night, to give San Jose another lead in the 56th minute.

That’s how things would remain for roughly 20 minutes, but Tom Barlow’s sixth goal of the season evened things up for Cincinnati in the 79th minute. Just like that, the Earthquakes had dropped from sole-possession of the top spot in the Western Conference to even on points with LAFC and the Vancouver Whitecaps, but that wouldn’t last long either.

Just three minutes later, Evander was able to give FC Cincinnati their first lead of the night to stun the Earthquakes. Then in the 95th minute, Ayoub Jabbari added another dagger, securing a 4-2 victory for Cincinnati. With just over 10 minutes remaining, it seemed that the Earthquakes would be walking away from their trip to Ohio with three points, instead, they left with nothing and fell to third place in the Western Conference.

SAN JOSE — Orlando City SC scored four unanswered goals in a dominating 4-0 clean sheet over the San Jose Earthquakes in the first match out of the World Cup break on Wednesday evening at PayPal Park.

San Jose has lost four out of its last five matches. Orlando City has won two matches in a row and had points in three out of its last four matches. With the Vancouver Whitecaps 4-3 loss to FC Cincinnati, San Jose remained tied with Vancouver for first place in the Western Conference.

San Jose (10-4-2-32 points) welcomed back striker Timo Werner back into the starting XI as he missed the past six matches dealing with a lower body injury. Goalkeeper Angus Gunn made his Earthquakes after being signed by San Jose two weeks ago on July 8. Gunn was one of the stalwarts of the 2026 FIFA World Cup for his native Scotland. Gunn last played for Nottingham Forrest of the English Premier League and has 59 clean sheets in 218 EPL appearances. To make room for Gunn, the Quake traded Daniel to FC Dallas in exchange for up to $1 million in General Allocation Money.

Speaking of debuts, new striker Antoine Griezmann who was in the starting XI for Orlando City (5-9-2-17 points) and head coach Martin Pereiman. The star French forward and World Cup champion was signed by Orlando back on March 24 as a Designated Player.

Griezmann almost caught Gunn too far out from the goal in the fifth minute after Gunn came out to challenge ball outside the box. Griezmann’s long attempt was sailed high over the net.

Orlando City drew first blood in the seventh minute off a set piece. Eduard Atuesta’s free kick from the right wing sailed into the middle of the box where unmarked David Brekaio easily headed the ball into the back of the net for his first goal of the season.

Beau Leroux had a chance in the 18th minute for an equalizer when he intercepted an Orlando City clearing attempt out of the box after Werner drove his way in from the left wing, but his cross was deflected away. Leroux’s shot attempt from just outside the box was saved by City goalkeeper Maxime Crepeau.

The Earthquakes thought they had tied the game in the 27th minute when Werner was sprung on a breakaway with a long ball into the middle. Werner was challenged by Crepeau before tapping it over to Daniel Munie who calmly put the ball into the back of the bet. The linesman called Munie offsides on the play as he left early before the pass was attempted.

Ivan Angulo doubled Orlando City’s lead in the 29th minute. Atuesta found Angulo with a pass to the right side. With all the time in the world, Angulo blasted a shot from 22 yards out past Gunn into the far-left corner of the net for his first goal of the season.

Griezmann recorded his first MLS goal thanks to a gift by San Jose in the 48th minute. A lazy back pass by Jamar Ricketts was intercepted by Justin Ellis just outside the box. Ellis quickly found Griezmann all alone inside the box where he made a move right then left before depositing the ball past Gunn for his 300th career goal among all competitions.

Crepeau made a diving save on a Werner chance a minute later as the Canadian goalie acted like a wall against the Quakes offensive attempts.

Orlando City scored its fourth unanswered goal in the 73rd minute on its second set piece of the match. Atuesta crossed the ball into middle of the box off of a corner kick and unmarked Braian Ojeda headed the ball just past the reach of a diving Gunn into the right corner of the net for his first goal of the season. Atuesta finished the match with three assists.

Crepau finished with six saves to earn the clean sheet. Gunn, who was at the mercy of his defense, made just one save on five shots attempts in his first match in a Quakes kit.

GAME NOTES: San Jose finished the match with two corner kicks. Orlando City also had two.

UP NEXT: San Jose hosts the Los Angeles Galaxy in the 105th meeting of the California Classico on Saturday July 25 at 7:30pm at Stanford Stadium.

SAN JOSE–The San Jose Earthquakes took to the pitch after over a month off for the World Cup break.

Club Tijuana of Liga MX defeated the Quakes 2-1 in an exhibition friendly match on Friday evening at PayPal Park.

Club Tijuana drew first blood in the sixth minute when Adonis Preciado headed in an Ignacio Rivero corner kick to make it 1-0. Just like that San Jose found themselves chasing the game.

The Earthquakes came close to answering four minutes later when a Timo Werner cross from the left wing was almost headed home by a surging Jamar Ricketts in the box.

San Jose scored the equalizer in the 16th minute with a high pressured attack. Preston Judd recovered the ball on the right wing and then found Beau Leroux in the center of the box. The midfielder took one touch and before Xolos goalkeeper Salím Hernández with a shot to make it 1-1.

The Quakes had an excellent chance to score in the 25th minute when Hernández came off his line and Daniel Munie was point-blank range in front of net, but the ball was cleared before he could muster a shot off

Then in the 40th minute, Judd had his own chance in the six-yard box, but his backheel for the far post was just wide. Two minutes later, Tijuana recaptured the lead when Preciado took the ball on the left wing, cut inside, and blasted a curler for the far post past Quakes goalkeeper Earl Edwards Jr. to make it 2-1 as the teams headed into the intermission.

In the second half, San Jose made wholesale changes, substituting out all 11 starters. The second wave of Quakes created chances almost immediately.

With time running out for San Jose, they turned on their sense of urgency. Bruce Arena’s squad had their opportunities to equalize once more but could not find the second goal. Their last descent chance to equalize came in the 89th minute when Paul Marie created space in the box on the middle left channel but his attempt was blocked. The ensuing corner kick floated dangerously inside the box but was punched away by Hernandez.

Homegrown midfielder Edwyn Mendoza, made his Quakes debut as he had a shot blocked in the first minute of stoppage time. San Jose gave it one last go when Jack Jasinski’s cross from the right wing spun toward net, but Marie’s header landed wide left.

The San Jose Earthquakes were back on the road on Saturday night, as they visited the Portland Timbers at Providence Park. The Quakes got plenty of help from Preston Judd who scored two goals in the Quakes 3-1 win over the Timbers.

The Quakes opened the scoring quickly, as Judd scored his 10th goal of the season in the second minute and hit double digits in scoring for the first time in his career. Jack Skahan placed the ball at Judd’s feet right at the edge of the 18-yard box and he fired the ball into the back of the net to give the Earthquakes a 1-0 lead very early on.

Ten minutes later, Nick Fernandez forced a turnover with a strong tackle on the ball. He then found Judd in quite a bit of space, and Judd scored his second of the night, putting him on hat-trick watch just 12 minutes into the match. The Timbers would answer back pretty quickly, as after a free kick, the Timbers went on the offensive. Eventually the ball found its way to Antony in quite a bit of space, and he put it into the goal and cut the Earthquakes’ lead to a single goal.

Just six minutes later, Daniel Munie would restore San Jose’s two goal lead and set a new career high with his third goal of the campaign. Off of a corner, a quick passing play found its way to Munie’s foot right in front of the goal and he put it away, making it a 3-1 game.

The San Jose Earthquakes were up in the Rocky Mountains on Wednesday night as they visited the Colorado Rapids as a part of the U.S. Open Cup Quarterfinals. The Quakes couldn’t get enough offense as they were shutout by the Colorado Rapids 2-0.

Colorado seemed to get out to an early lead, as the ball found the back of the net in the 20th minute off of the foot of Rafael Navarro but the play was ruled offside and the game remained tied at 0-0.

Eventually the Rapids would get their go-ahead goal though, as Darren Yapi’s perfectly placed header connected off of a cross which made the ball sail into the netting, giving Colorado a 1-0 lead late in the first half.

The Rapids were then awarded a penalty late in stoppage time of the first half due to a handball by Reid Roberts. After being denied his previous goal due to offside, Navarro stepped up to the penalty spot and put the ball past Daniel to double Colorado’s lead before halftime.

Roberts came out of the game to start the second half, with Dave Romney taking his place. Paul Marie was the next player to exit the game for the Quakes, being replaced by Jack Skahan in the 62nd minute.

As the game progressed, the Earthquakes made more changes. Nick Fernandez entered the game in the 72nd minute for Preston Judd, then Ronaldo Vieira exited for Jack Jasinski in the 86th.

The Earthquakes offense failed to break Colorado’s clean sheet, and they were eliminated from the U.S. Open Cup with a final score of 2-0.

SAN JOSE — Samuel Sarver scored the game winning goal in the third minute of stoppage time as FC Dallas took down the San Jose Earthquakes 3-2 on Saturday evening at PayPal Park.

San Jose has lost two matches in a row for the first time all season. FC Dallas has won three of its past four matches.

FC Dallas (6-4-4-22 points) struck first in the match’s opening minute thanks to poor ball management by San Jose. Back-to-back turnovers inside their third of the pitch by Beau Leroux and then a bad clearing attempt by Benji Kikanovic led to Patrick Delgado beating Quakes goalkeeper Daniel with a left-footed shot in the right corner of the net for his second goal of the season.

“The last two games we positioned ourselves to walk off the field with a point and failed to finish out the games properly,” said Quakes head coach Bruce Arena.

San Jose (9-3-2-29 points) responded in the 18th minute. Ousseni Bouda crossed the ball into the middle of box that was headed away by a FC Dallas defender. Midfielder Beau Leroux one-timed the ball out of midair high into the right corner of the net that goalkeeper Johnathan Sirois could only watch for Leroux’s secodn goal of the season.

The Earthquakes didn’t capitalize on a chance to take lead the in the 42nd minute when they were awarded a penalty kick after Ian Harkes was tripped up inside the box by FC Dallas defender Osaze Urhoghide two minutes earlier. Leroux’s penalty attempt was stoned away by Sirois with a diving save to the right.

FC Dallas jumped out of the gate to start the second half as they regained the lead in the 49th minute. Herman Johansson sent a ball into the box retrieved by an unmarked Petar Musa. The Croatian striker needed just one touch before blasting a shot past Daniel for his team-leading 12th goal of the season.

The Quakes had many set pieces throughout the match but were only able to capitalize on one of them which left the team frustrated at the end of the match when all said was done.

“Overall, it’s just a frustrating game, especially with the way it ended,” said Quakes captain Ronaldo Vieira. “I think everybody felt like this was at least a game where we should’ve walked away with a point, similar to the Seattle game with the set pieces.”

San Jose scored the equalizer on a set piece in the 81st minute. Bouda’s corner kick into the middle of the box pinballed around and off of the knee of Ried Roberts for his first goal of his MLS career. It was a bit of redemption for Roberts who had left Musa unmarked on his goal earlier in the half.

Sirios finished the match with six saves on eight shots on target to earn his fifth victory of the season. Daniel made seven saves on 10 shots on target in the losing effort.

“We’re at the end of both games where we have a point, and if we lock it down, we walk off the field with a point in both games. That’s how a good, experienced team deals with both of these games, and we failed to do that,” Arena said.

GAME NOTES: San Jose finished with 12 corner kicks. FC Dallas had four.

The Earthquakes’ all-time regular season record vs. Dallas is now 31-23-23 (121 GF, 98 GA) and 18-9-13 (69 GF, 49 GA) at home.

The Earthquakes sold out PayPal Park for the third time this season and in back-to-back matches (March 15 vs. Seattle, May 9 vs. Vancouver, May 16 vs. Dallas).


The Quakes started eight American players tonight. No team in MLS has averaged more of them in the starting 11 more across all competitions in 2026 than Bruce Arena’s Earthquakes (7.7/game). Arena also started nine former college players tonight; no team in MLS has more of them on the roster (19).

Chris Wondolowski, MLS’ all-time leading scorer in regular-season play with 171 goals, was honored at halftime for his May 1 induction into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

UP NEXT: San Jose returns to U.S. Open Cup play on Wednesday when they take on the Colorado Rapids in the quarterfinals at 7:00pm at DICK’S Sporting Goods Park.

SAN JOSE–The San Jose Earthquakes were back on the road on Wednesday night, as they headed to Seattle for a midweek match against the Sounders.

Nick Fernandez got the Earthquakes on the board quickly, as the Sounders turned the ball over near their goal to Nonso Adimabua who found Fernandez in front of the goal. As a result, the Quakes were up 1-0 in the second minute of the match.

Despite testing the San Jose Earthquakes’ goalkeeper Daniel quite a bit throughout the first half, it took the Sounders until the 43rd minute to find an equalizer. Dave Romney was called for a foul inside the Quakes’ box, sending Albert Rusnak to the penalty spot. Rusnak beat Daniel and tied the game at a goal apiece. Reid Roberts was shown a yellow card in stoppage time.

Ultimately, the game went into halftime as a 1-1 draw.

The Quakes made a pair of changes to start the second half, with leading scorer Preston Judd entering the match alongside Ousseni Bouda.

In the 55th minute, Seattle midfielder Jesus Ferreira ran from his own half into the San Jose penalty area. He danced around the Earthquakes’ defender and beat the goalkeeper to give the Sounders their first lead of the night.

The Sounders defense seemed to be holding up in the 69th minute, but a shot was blocked right to the feet of Judd who tied the game once again.

The Earthquakes would ultimately lose the game in heart breaking fashion though, as Osaze De Rosario scored a header in the 89th minute to put the Sounders back on top.

With the loss, the Earthquakes now sit second in the Western Conference trailing the Vancouver Whitecaps on goal differential.

SAN JOSE — In a battle for the top spot in the Western Conference, the San Jose Earthquakes and the Vancouver Whitecaps battled to a 1-1 draw on Saturday evening at PayPal Park.

San Jose extended its point streak to eight matches. Vancouver extended its point streak to six matches.

San Jose (9-1-2-29 points) drew first blood int he fourth minute. Paul Marie, who made his first start for head coach Bruce Arena, threaded a pass out to Preston Judd in stride inside the box. The veteran forward one-timed the ball into the right corner of the net past Whitecaps goalkeeper Yohei Takaoka for his team leading eighth goal of the season.

Vancouver (8-1-2-26 points) had a chance to even the match in the 29th minute when midfielder Jeevan Baldwal had a point-blank shot all alone inside the six-yard box, but Quakes goalkeeper Daniel knocked the ball away from danger.

Benji Kikanovic was issued a yellow card in the 36th minute after a ticky-tack foul was called on him just outside the box. Daniel was then also issued a yellow card for arguing the call with referee Malik Badawi.

Despite controlling the possession battle by a two-thirds to one margin and outshooting San Jose 6-2, Vancouver wasn’t able to generate many quality scoring chances in the opening 45 minutes.

Vancouver came out with vengeance in the second half as the dominated play from the opening minute all the way till stoppage time. They controlled the possession and kept the Quakes from counterattacking as they won the majority of the 50/50 balls. San Jose had a tough time dealing the Whitecaps physicality as the match ensued.

Daniel came up with three big saves in a span of three minutes. First in the 55th minute he knocked away a shot from 15 yards by Andres Cubas after being setup by Emmanuel Sabbi. Then in 57th minute he stoned away back-to-back chances inside the box by Bruno Caicedo and Badwal.

Vancouver finally broke through with the equalizer in the 76th minute. Sabbi found Sebastian Berhalter all alone along the right side of the box and Berhalter finished off a right-footed shot past Daniel for his fourth goal of the season, tied for second on the team with Tomas Muller who sat out the match with an illness.

Daniel finished the match stopping four of the five shots on target to earn the draw with his fellow keeper Takaoka who made two saves on three shots on target.

GAME NOTES: San Jose finished the match with two corner kicks. Vancouver had four.

By William Espy

The San Jose Earthquakes looked to continue their hot start to the MLS season on Saturday morning as they visited Toronto F.C. north of the border forcing a 1-1 draw at BMO Stadium in Toronto.

Toronto didn’t wait long to put pressure on the Earthquakes, as Daniel Salloi was able to beat the Earthquakes goalkeeper, Daniel, with a shot from inside the box less than two minutes into the game.

Preston Judd scored his seventh goal of the season for the Earthquakes in the 14th minute to even things up at a goal apiece. Beau Leroux was shown the first yellow card of the afternoon in the 17th minute. Ronaldo Vieira was shown a yellow card in the 37th minute after a challenge from behind.

The game remained tied 1-1 heading into the halftime break.

Niko Tsakiris left the game in the 54th minute with an apparent injury. Nick Fernandez entered the game in his place.

The Earthquakes got away with an apparent handball in the 62nd minute, but there was no review and play continued. Judd nearly scored a second goal in the 65th minute, but the play was immediately called offside.

Toronto thought they took a lead in the dying moments of the game, but a sliding Reid Roberts kept the ball from crossing the goal line, keeping the game tied at a goal a piece. The play was reviewed, but the call was confirmed that there was no goal on the play.

Despite an abundance of scoring chances by both sides, neither team could break the deadlock and it would end in a 1-1 tie.

The Earthquakes will return home next weekend Sat May 9th as they take on the Vancouver Whitecaps.
