SAN JOSE, Calif.—The San Jose Earthquakes came agonizingly close to at least gaining a draw with the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday night.
Substitute Daniel Steres scored his first goal of the season in the 86th minute and Houston escaped with a 1–0 Major League Soccer victory. Steres’ volleyed finish vaulted the Dynamo (9–7–7, 34 points) to a fifth road victory this season on a night it outshot the last-place Earthquakes 22–9 overall and 7–0 in efforts on target.
