Chris Wondolowski (Kiowa Tribe) gives San Jose Earthquakes 1-1 draw with Houston Dynamo

HOUSTON (AP) — Chris Wondolowski volleyed home Cordell Cato’s chip pass in the 59th minute and the San Jose Earthquakes held on for a 1-1 draw with the Houston Dynamo on Sunday night.

Wondolowski scored for the first time against his former team (2006-09) and joined New England’s Kei Kamara as the only players to score against 21 different MLS teams. The goal also marked the end of Houston’s franchise-record 550 minutes without a goal allowed at home.

Alex opened the scoring for the Dynamo (4-9-8) with a left-footed strike in the second minute of first-half stoppage time. Alex’s goal stopped Houston’s 405-minute scoring drought in all competitions.

San Jose (6-6-9) remained winless on the road in 2016 at 0-5-6.
