San Jose Earthquakes vs. New York Red Bulls

San Jose, Calif. (July 5, 2025) — The San Jose Earthquakes earned a point in a 1-1 draw against the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night at PayPal Park, with the equalizing goal coming via a second-half own goal by the visitors.

New York opened the scoring in the 18th minute, taking advantage of a low cross that was converted from close range. The Earthquakes absorbed early pressure and remained composed throughout the first half, working to create chances in transition.

The turning point came in the 57th minute, when Cristian Espinoza drove a dangerous ball into the box. A Red Bulls defender, under pressure, inadvertently deflected the cross into his own net, leveling the score for San Jose. The goal shifted momentum in favor of the Quakes, who pushed forward in search of a winner.

Despite several promising late opportunities, the match ended in a draw — with both sides walking away with a point.

The result keeps San Jose unbeaten in their last two home matches as they continue their push in the Western Conference standings. The Earthquakes return to action on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, when they face Austin FC.
