Salt Lake City – The San Jose Earthquakes tied Real Salt Lake 1-1 at Rio Tinto Stadium Friday night in their first encounter of the season. Chirs Wondolowski gave the Quakes an early lead, but the home side came back to equalize the game in the second half. With the result, San Jose remains in eighth in the Western Conference.
Wondolowski gave the Quakes the advantage nine minutes into the first half scoring the Quakes’ first goal of the season from a corner. The forward sent the ball into the back of the net after Simon Dawkins’ cross took a deflection off a Salt Lake defender and landed at the Quakes’ forward’s feet.
