COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Gaston Sauro scored in the 10th minute on a glancing header of Pedro Santos' corner kick and the Columbus Crew beat FC Dallas 1-0 on Saturday.
Columbus (2-0-1) topped FC Dallas (1-1-1) at home for just the second time since 2012.
Columbus goalkeeper Zack Steffen came out of his area in the 57th minute for a kick save of Michael Barrios' open shot at the corner of the 6-yard box. It was Steffen's second straight shutout, keeping the Crew's opponents scoreless for 264 minutes since the New York Red Bulls scored in the sixth minute of a 1-1 draw in the season opener on March 2.
