San Jose Earthquakes News Release

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Rookie forward Adam Jahn scored in the 92nd minute to rally the San Jose Earthquakes to a 1-1 draw against the Portland Timbers on Sunday at a sold out Buck Shaw Stadium.

Jahn began the scoring sequence, flicking a header into the mix with San Jose (2-3-3, 9 pts.) trailing 1-0. Nana Attakora got his foot to the ball and centered a pass to Chris Wondolowski. The reigning Volkswagen MLS Most Valuable Player laid the ball off for Jahn who blasted his shot past Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts to earn the Earthquakes a home point.

The goal was Jahn's second of his career. The former Stanford target man scored his first in dramatic fashion as well, equalizing against the New York Red Bulls on March 10 at Buck Shaw Stadium; he also earned the penalty that won San Jose the match, 2-1.

The Earthquakes out-shot their guests 12-7 on the night and were knocking on the door for much of the evening. Wondolowski had a one-on-one opportunity denied by Ricketts in the first half while Sam Garza was turned away in similar fashion in the second half. Steven Lenhart also saw his 72nd-minute header float inches wide of the far post.

Despite the number of chances generated, it was Portland who tallied first. Steven Beitashour cleanly tackled the ball away from Ryan Johnson in the area, but the ball glanced off the attacker and to the feet of Diego Valeri. The Argentine Designated Player volleyed with Earthquakes goalkeeper Jon Busch off his line and found the net for a 1-0 lead in the 58th minute.

Among the milestones celebrated by San Jose on Sunday, All-Star right back and San Jose native Steven Beitashour made his first appearance of the season after recovering from surgery to repair a sports hernia. Honduran winger Marvin Chavez also made his first appearance of 2013 after missing the club's first seven games with a sprained medial-collateral ligament. Additionally, third-year midfielder Rafael Baca made his 50th career start with the club.

San Jose returns to action on Saturday, April 27 against Chivas USA at The Home Depot Center. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. PT on Comcast SportsNet California, 1590 KLIV and 1370 KZSF.
