Ten Game Recap
 | • SAT APR 11, 2025 • Skahan Flips the Script for San Jose Earthquakes (3) @ Sporting Kansas City (1) Kansas City, MO - San Jose Earthquakes took a punch, then threw three clean counters of their own in a 3-1 win over Sporting Kansas City, turning an early deficit into another sharp entry on a fast-growing résumé. Jacob Bartlett put Kansas City ahead in the 27th minute, but Jack Skahan changed the mood just before halftime and then changed the match for good four minutes into the second half, scoring in the 44th and 49th minutes to swing control firmly toward San Jose. Dave Romney added the third in the 75th minute, and that was enough to seal it. ESPN’s match report shows both sides finished with 10 shot attempts, which makes the result even more telling: San Jose did not bury Kansas City with volume, it beat them with timing and finishing. The Earthquakes also edged possession 51.3 to 48.7, won the corner battle 4-2, and stayed cleaner defensively, with Sporting Kansas City taking the game’s only two yellow cards. By full time, San Jose had turned a fairly even stat sheet into a very uneven scoreboard, the kind of road result that says this team is not just collecting points, but learning exactly when to twist the knife.

• SAT APR 4, 2025 • Tsakiris Turns Up the Quake Meter Earthquakes (3) vs San Diego FC (0) San Jose, CA - The Quakes did not just beat San Diego FC. They smothered them, struck early, and never let the match breathe. Niko Tsakiris opened the scoring in the 13th minute off a Preston Judd setup, then buried a penalty in the 34th after San Diego defender Manu Duah was sent off following video review two minutes earlier. Judd joined the fun in first-half stoppage time, finishing off the attack to give the Earthquakes a 3-0 cushion before the break. From there, the Quakes played with control instead of panic, forcing San Diego to chase shadows while Daniel had little to do beyond recording his fifth shutout of the season. The numbers told the same story as the scoreboard. San Jose piled up 24 shot attempts to San Diego’s four, put 10 shots on target to the visitors’ one, and kept pressing even after the match was effectively settled. Judd finished with a goal and an assist, Tsakiris delivered the headline performance, and the Earthquakes left with a win that pushed them to 5-1-0, the best six-game start in club history.

• SAT MAR 21, 2025 • Leroux Lifts Quakes While Daniel Slams the Door Earthquakes (1) @ Vancouver Whitecaps FC (0) Vancouver, BC - The San Jose Earthquakes leaned on grit, timing, and a red-hot goalkeeper to grind out a 1-0 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps, a result that felt bigger than the scoreline suggested. With Vancouver controlling possession and firing off more shots, San Jose stayed patient and struck at the perfect moment when Beau Leroux found the net in first-half stoppage time, slipping the Quakes ahead just before the break. From there, the match turned into a test of discipline and resilience. Vancouver pushed forward with urgency, creating several dangerous looks, but Daniel stood tall in goal, turning away six shots and frustrating every late surge. San Jose’s defense absorbed pressure without cracking, while the midfield stayed organized enough to slow the tempo and limit second chances. Despite being outshot and out-possessed, the Quakes made their opportunity count and protected it with conviction. The victory not only handed Vancouver its first loss of the season but also continued San Jose’s strong early run, showing a team that may not dominate every stat sheet but knows exactly how to win when it matters most.

• SUN MAR 15, 2025 • Quakes Control Everything Except the Scoreline Earthquakes (0) vs Seattle Sounders (1) San Jose, CA - The San Jose Earthquakes did just about everything right except the one thing that matters most, falling 1-0 despite dominating nearly every measurable category. San Jose dictated the pace from the start, holding over 60 percent possession and piling up a staggering 25 shots, but the breakthrough never came. Instead, it was Seattle that struck first and ultimately last, with Paul Rothrock finishing off a well-worked sequence in the 20th minute off an assist from Jesús Ferreira. From there, the match turned into a one-sided push from the Quakes, who forced seven saves and racked up 18 corner kicks, yet couldn’t solve a disciplined defensive wall. The attacking pressure felt relentless, but too often lacked that final touch, whether it was a mistimed run, a blocked effort, or a goalkeeper standing tall at the right moment. For a team riding momentum, this result stings more than most, not because they were outplayed, but because they weren’t. It was the kind of game that tests patience, where dominance without precision leaves nothing in the standings. Image By: Getty Images / Written By: Mauricio Segura / Game #4 / 3-0-1 | |||
• SAT MAR 7, 2025 • Bouda’s Strike Keeps San Jose Perfect Earthquakes (1) @ Philadelphia Union (0) Chester, PA - The Quakes continue to carve out one of the sharpest starts the club has ever seen, grinding out a clean 1–0 victory over the Philadelphia Union thanks to a decisive second-half moment from Ousseni Bouda. With the match hanging in a tense balance, Bouda broke the deadlock in the 59th minute after quick attacking movement involving Timo Werner and Niko Tsakiris helped unlock Philadelphia’s defense. The finish proved to be the lone breakthrough in a tightly contested battle that leaned heavily on patience and defensive resolve. Philadelphia pushed throughout the match, firing 13 total shots and forcing San Jose to stay organized under pressure, but the Earthquakes held firm behind goalkeeper Daniel, who produced three key saves to secure the shutout. San Jose managed eight total attempts of its own and matched the Union with three shots on target while holding a slight edge in possession. The clean sheet marked the club’s third straight to begin the campaign, underscoring a defensive structure that has quietly become the backbone of the team’s early success. The victory lifts the Earthquakes to a perfect 3-0-0 start, the first time in franchise history the club has opened a season with three consecutive wins, giving San Jose early momentum and a growing sense that something special may be brewing.

• SAT FEB 28, 2025 • Two Goals One Clean Sheet and a Little Chaos Earthquakes (2) vs Atlanta United FC (0) San Jose, CA - San Jose turned its home opener into a tidy two-goal statement, blanking Atlanta United 2-0 with a mix of hustle, patience, and ruthless counterpunching. The breakthrough came in the 24th minute when Jamar Ricketts pounced on an Atlanta giveaway, whipped in a cross from the left, and Preston Judd met it with a glancing header into the net. Atlanta tried to tilt the field, but the Earthquakes were comfortable without the ball, finishing with about 45% possession while still winning the shot count 13-8 and shots on target 6-1. The biggest jolt arrived off the bench: new Designated Player Timo Werner made his MLS debut in the 61st minute, then helped seal it in the 79th, driving a quick attack and sending a cross for Ousseni Bouda to half-volley home from close range. Daniel made a save to earn his second straight shutout in front of 16,159 fans, and head coach Bruce Arena notched his 275th MLS regular-season win. With the result, San Jose moved to 2-0-0 and opened the year with back-to-back shutouts for the first time in club history. Atlanta’s frustration showed in three yellow cards, while San Jose picked up one late. Image By: Getty Images / Written By: Mauricio Segura / Game #2 / 2-0-0 | |||
• SAT FEB 21, 2025 • Munie Strikes Twice as Quakes Rattle Sporting Earthquakes (3) vs Sporting Kansas City (0) San Jose, CA - The Quakes opened their season with a sharp 3-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City, powered by a clinical stretch just before halftime and a defense that barely blinked. Daniel Munie delivered a first-half breakthrough in the 42nd minute, then doubled the lead nine minutes into the second half, single-handedly dominating the scoreboard. In between, Preston Judd added the second goal of the night during the first-half stoppage time, giving San Jose a commanding cushion that shifted the tone from tense to confident. Sporting held more of the ball, finishing with 55.8 percent possession, but the Earthquakes were far more dangerous, outshooting their visitors 17 to 7 and putting six attempts on target. San Jose also dominated on set pieces, earning 15 corner kicks to Sporting’s three, a steady drumbeat of pressure that kept Kansas City pinned back. The Quakes needed just one save to preserve the clean sheet, a testament to organized defending and disciplined positioning. It was efficient, opportunistic soccer, giving fans a hopeful preview of something sturdy and loud to carry into a winning season.
