America's long-range shooting was critical in the Liga MX club's victory over the San Jose Earthquakes.
America survived a first-half red card to fight back for a 2-1 win over San Jose Earthquakes at Avaya Stadium on Tuesday.
In its second International Champions Cup (ICC) fixture in four days, America trailed to a Clarence Goodson header at halftime in San Jose, with both sides reduced to 10 players in first-half stoppage time following a heated fracas.
But two strikes from outside the box in the space of eight second-half minutes saw America bounce back from its ICC loss to the LA Galaxy on Saturday and beat the Earthquakes.
