Late miscue forces 'Quakes to share points with RSL

Soccer Betting Lines

07/04/2009 - Sandy, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Jose Earthquakes and Real Salt Lake battled to a 1-1 draw in Major League Soccer action at Rio Tinto Stadium on Friday night.

Arturo Alvarez scored the game's first goal for San Jose before a Chris Leitch own goal in second-half stoppage-time was enough for the home side to earn a point.

Alvarez broke the deadlock in the 63rd minute, side-stepping past a number of defenders at the top of the RSL penalty area before depositing his fifth goal of the season into the back of the net with his left foot.

The 'Quakes were given some insurance in the 77th minute when RSL forward Fabian Espindola was ejected for retaliating after a hard tackle by Brandon McDonald.

But despite playing down a man, RSL pushed for the equalizer late.

Javier Morales started the chance by playing a long ball into the San Jose penalty area as the clock ticked down. Yura Movsisyan ran onto the ball, but defender Leitch toe poked it away from him. Unfortunately for the 'Quakes, the ball went past goalkeeper Joe Cannon and into his own net for the 1-1 draw.

The goal was the ninth in 15 games this season that RSL (5-6-5) has scored in the last 15 minutes. The draw also helped it extend its unbeaten run to five games.

The 'Quakes (3-8-4) missed a golden opportunity to earn three points, and are still stuck in the Western Conference basement after being forced to share the points.

San Jose will be back in league action when it hosts Toronto FC next Saturday, while RSL is at Columbus on July 18 in its next league fixture.
