FC Dallas beats San Jose Earthquakes 3-0 as Petar Musa scores twice

Chances without a first-half goal

San Jose threatened in the 18th minute when Beau Leroux headed Timo Werner’s cross toward goal, but Daniel saved. Ousseni Bouda broke through in the 28th minute, only for the Dallas goalkeeper to collect the ball before he could shoot.

Dallas also had opportunities before halftime. Petar Musa set up Joaquín Valiente in the 39th minute, but his close-range attempt went over. Angus Gunn then denied Musa, and Daniel Job sent the rebound over, leaving the teams scoreless at the break.

Kamungo helps unlock the scoring

Bernard Kamungo shot wide of the far post from the area’s edge in the 63rd minute. In the 83rd, his cutback found Musa, who curled home from the edge of the area.

Santiago Moreno also assisted the opening goal, contributing to the breakthrough before adding a goal of his own late in the match.

A penalty and a late third

Musa doubled the lead from the penalty spot after Kaick was fouled inside the box.

A turnover brought Dallas’s third goal in the fourth minute of stoppage time, completing the scoring.

Moreno’s strike was his fourth goal of the season. Musa’s two goals took his season tally to 22, establishing a personal single-season high.

Daniel’s shutout accompanies a club scoring record

Daniel finished with one save against his former club, having joined Dallas from San Jose in July. Dallas’s three goals raised its season total to 58, surpassing the previous club record of 55, achieved in both 1997 and 2014.

The victory was Dallas’s eighth home win of the season. At Toyota Stadium, the crowd of 10,925 extended Dallas’s consecutive regular-season sellout streak to 49 during renovations on the stadium’s west side.
