Chris Wondolowski built upon his MLS-record tally with his 151st career goal before halftime, and the San Jose Earthquakes held on for a 1-1 draw against D.C. United on Saturday night at Audi Field.
Wondolowski has now scored the last seven goals for San Jose in their last three matches, two wins and a draw. Under first-year coach Matias Almeyda, the Quakes have lost only once in their last seven after beginning the season with four consecutive defeats.
Luciano Acosta leveled after the break after chasing down a fortuitous rebound for his second goal in as many games and fifth of the season. But D.C. remained winless with four points over their last five games, their longest such stretch since Wayne Rooney debuted in Washington last July.
