As for San Jose (4-20-8, 20 points) while they did sustain another loss, all but sealing their fate as the holder of the wooden spoon, there was some joy to take out of the match as Chris Wondolowski scored in the 83rd minute. With his goal, he moves to within one goal of Landon Donovan for the league’s all-time leading scorer mark. The club will look to break the record on October 21 as they play their final home game of the season against the Colorado Rapids (5pm EST).
