Emil Forsberg goal helps Red Bulls tie San Jose Earthquakes
Emil Forsberg scored a goal in his second consecutive game for the New York on Saturday night as the Red Bulls and the San Jose Earthquakes played to a 1-1 tie. Forsberg ran onto a ball played by Peter Stroud, zig-zagged to evade a pair of defenders near the penalty spot and then slipped a rising shot inside the left post to open the scoring in the 19th minute. An own goal on New York's Mohammed Sofo, who redirected a cross played by San Jose's Cristian Espinoza into the net, made it 1-1 in the 58th minute. San Jose played a man down after DeJuan Jones was shown his second yellow card in the 64th. New York (8-7-6) is winless in four straight. Carlos Miguel Coronel had three saves for the Red Bulls. New York's Raheem Edwards was shown a straight red card in the 87th minute. Daniel De Sousa Britto — known simply as "Daniel" — stopped three shots for the Earthquakes. San Jose (7-7-7) is unbeaten in four consecutive games.

TFC recovers from sluggish start to salvage draw with New York Red Bulls
Theo Corbeanu's second-half goal lifted Toronto FC into a 1-1 draw with the New York Red Bulls in MLS play Wednesday. Article content Mohammed Sofo scored for the Red Bulls (8-7-4) who had taken advantage of a sluggish start by Toronto in front of an announced crowd of 19,826 at BMO Field. Corbeanu's goal came on one of TFC's two efforts on target. Article content It was Toronto's first action since a May 31 home loss to Charlotte FC, with the scheduled pause for the Gold Cup and FIFA Club World Cup extended when its June 13 game at Los Angeles FC was postponed to Oct. 8 after LAFC qualified for the Club World Cup. Article content Toronto (3-10-5) looked rusty to start, giving the ball away, and fell behind in the 20th minute. Article content Sofo dispossessed Maxime Dominguez, passed the ball to Lewis Morgan and then headed towards goal. Morgan's shot was stopped by goalkeeper Sean Johnson, but Sofo knocked the rebound home into the empty goal. Article content Morgan has eight goal contributions (five goals, three assists) in eight career MLS appearances against Toronto. Article content The celebration didn't last long with Morgan forced to leave the game four minutes later. The Scottish international, in his second game back from a knee surgery, was on the ball looking to pick up speed when he suddenly put on the brakes. Article content It was just his second start of the season — and his first since the opening game of the season. Article content Corbeanu pulled Toronto even in the 51st minute, heading the ball past goalkeeper Carlos Coronel after Alonso Coello, following a corner, found Sigurd Rosted at the far post and the Norwegian defender headed the ball back across goal. Corbeanu rose high for his fourth goal of the season — in TFC's first effort on target. Article content Article content Article content The Red Bulls' last game was June 14, a 2-1 loss at Austin FC. The New Yorkers had won four straight across all competitions before that. Article content The Red Bulls arrived in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, six places and 14 points ahead of Toronto. But most of New York's success has come at Sports Illustrated Stadium where it had gone 7-1-1 compared to 1-6-2 on the road. Article content Toronto's home record, at 1-7-2 before Wednesday, was last in the league — a record exacerbated by five defeats at BMO Field in May when TFC went 2-5-0. Toronto went a disappointing 2-5-0 in May despite playing six of the seven games at home.
