Facing an array of injuries and international absences — especially in the midfield — Luchi Gonzalez turned to two of his more consistent players Saturday in San Jose and they each proved their worth in a game built specifically for them.
The game, like most against the Earthquakes, was incredibly strange — especially considering FC Dallas was gifted an opening goal we can safely assume will never be topped. That being said, leaving the Bay Area with a point seemed fair, especially after San Jose had all the momentum and attacking chances for the first 15 minutes of the second half, where they took a 2-1 advantage.
