SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose Earthquakes forward Preston Judd has been named to Major League Soccer's Team of the Matchday for Matchday 28. Judd's stoppage-time goal secured the Earthquakes' 2-1 win over Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Saturday at PayPal Park.

In the fourth minute of stoppage time, Jamar Ricketts sped down the left wing and crossed the ball across the goal to the opposite wing. DeJuan Jones one-timed it back in front of goal and a streaking Preston Judd coolly slotted it home for the game-winner and all three points. The goal marks Judd's fifth of the season and ninth of his career.
