Halftime in Colorado, as the Rapids take a 2-0 lead into the break of the #USOC2026 quarterfinals. It's the first time in all competitions this year that the #Quakes74 have trailed by two goals.

Couldn't have happened to a finer club. #PUP 😉

News: The #Quakes74 have acquired forward/winger Darius Johnson from Phoenix Rising FC on a permanent transfer and signed him to a contract through the 2026 season with club options through June 2027 and the 2027-28 season. The Grenadian international will occupy an International Roster Slot.

Bruce Arena was very disappointed in the way VAR was used tonight, questions why the review of Benji Kikanovic's possible DOGSO required so much time, yet no consideration was given to the FC Dallas goal and the possible foul on Ronaldo Vieira in the build up.

Reid Roberts was rigid as Petar Musa kept moving, and the Dallas striker pokes home from close range to give the visitors a 2-1. #Quakes74 have to play catch-up once again.

Really good crowd tonight at PayPal Park, making themselves heard at every opportunity. #Quakes74 started slow in this game, but they're growing into it. 1-1 at halftime is a fair score; San Jose needs to up the intensity a notch higher and put Dallas under pressure from the second half whistle.

If he'd been allowed to take that penalty kick on the volley, no way Beau Leroux would have missed. #worldiesonly

Daniel Munie showing off his All-Star level defending for the #Quakes74 tonight against FC Dallas. If you agree, make your voice heard: voting is now open for the 2026 MLS All-Star team.

Heavily rotated #Quakes74 Starting XI tonight at Seattle Sounders. Only way to rotate it even further would have been to replace goalkeeper Daniel with Nate Crockford!

NEWS: #Quakes74 midfielder Niko Tsakiris underwent successful surgery on his right groin today and is expected to miss three to four months. Niko has been playing at an MLS All-Star level and is a big reason San Jose sits atop the Supporters' Shield standings.

California continues to innovate.

Some (deserved) love for Daniel Munie as a Best XI MLS centerback. The #Quakes74 defensive anchor has rarely put a foot wrong this season.

Vancouver Whitecaps star Thomas Müller is listed as Out due to illness on the latest MLS Player Availability report, meaning he'll miss tomorrow night's showdown with the San Jose Earthquakes at PayPal Park. The #Quakes74 German DP Timo Werner is also Out with a leg injury.

The Supporters' Shield leading #Quakes74 will be without Niko Tsakiris and Timo Werner when they face second place Vancouver Whitecaps this Saturday, head coach Bruce Arena confirmed. Both of San Jose's primary playmakers are out for the foreseeable future.

Out at #Quakes74 training, still no Timo Werner.

A good look at the surprising San Jose Earthquakes, from @kevinvnguyen.bsky.social, a must follow for #Quakes74 supporters.

#Quakes74 receive the lowest hosting priority for their remaining #USOC2026 matches, meaning to lift the cup, they'll need to win three straight on the road. SJ travels to Colorado for the quarterfinal, then, if they win, to either St. Louis or Houston for the semifinal. East winner hosts the final.

For many years, Alex Covelo was one of the constants with the San Jose Earthquakes. Always informative to talk with him; a very astute soccer mind.

Beau with another banger to put them back in the lead. They haven’t looked as strong these past two games but they’ve gotten the job done.

#Quakes74 are now scoring for fun. Jack Skahan puts San Jose back in the lead, and then Niko Tsakiris extends the lead to 4-2. The pace of this game has really picked up! #USOC2026

And now this didn't age well!

This didn't age well...

James Rodríguez off the bench in the 51st minute to warm up, and the many yellow-clad fans in the stand let out a roar of approval. Lots of folks eager to welcome the Colombian into the game. #USOC2026

#Quakes up 1-0 at halftime against Minnesota with a berth in the #USOC2026 Quarterfinal on the line. Timo Werner left the game with what appeared to be a hamstring injury. San Jose lineup is at full strength otherwise, and plenty good enough to see this one out.

Timo Werner has quickly vaulted up the MLS Goals Added (g+) chart, now behind only Messi. Preston Judd, who's been a fixture on the list all season, remains in the Top 10. Solid work from the Supporters' Shield leading #Quakes74 attackers.

The NASR and its membership offers our heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of one of our own - Matthias Van Halst, who's dedication, passion, and professionalism in his work and life will be fondly remembered. Rest in peace, Matthias.

Timo Werner has quickly adapted himself to the demands of MLS, and the ways he's stepped up these last couple of weeks has been impressive. His leadership, along with that of Ronaldo Vieira, has been vital to the young #Quakes74 confidence and success.

Well, @elmark-neitzel.bsky.social, we weren't too far off.

Officially official. bsky.app/profile/game...

Oh my! #Quakes74

Terrible giveaway by Ronaldo Vieira gifts Austin the lead, and his underhit pass finds Joseph Rosales with just Daniel to beat, and he did. #Quakes74 give up only their fourth goal of the season.

#Quakes74 starting lineup against Austin FC is what was expected, with one change: Jack Jasinski replaces regular starter Benji Kikanovic at right back.

We reached out to Robert Jonas to get intel about the San Jose Earthquakes ahead of their Wednesday night match with Austin FC, and we're glad we did: verdeallday.com/foreign-exch...

#Quakes74 so far in 2026: Very good and quite lucky, according to the data. Phenomenal, to the eye.

Catching up on #Quakes74 vs LAFC, and I have to say that was their most impressive performance in years. The "we play together" mentality was on full display, with the defensive effort leading to quality chances and possession. Beau Leroux was excellent, and Niko Tsakiris played like an All-Star.

One more win secures our place in the Champo! #PUP

#Quakes74 are the only team from west of the Rockies still alive in the #USOC2026 tournament!

Despite playing down a man for nearly an hour, the #Quakes74 earned a comfortable 2-0 victory over Phoenix Rising to advance to the #USOC2026 Round of 16, where they'll host fellow MLS side Minnesota United. Nick Fernandez scored the game winner for San Jose, with Jack Jasinski netting the second.

The #Quakes74 defensive effort this season has been so consistent. Even a man down, San Jose is finding its shape quickly and frustrating Phoenix on every turnover and possession. Still 2-0 to the hosts with 15 minutes remaining. #USOC2026

Halftime at PayPal Park, as the #Quakes hold a 2-0 lead against Phoenix Rising. San Jose is playing a man down, as Jonathan Gonzalez was shown a second yellow in the 39th minute. Quakes were in full control of the match prior to the ejection, but Phoenix has since, well, been rising.

Jonathan Gonzalez with a second yellow card, and the #Quakes74 will play a man down with a 2-0. Incredibly poor decision by JoGo to commit a tactical foul when already on a yellow. #USOC20

Sometimes, it makes too much sense.

Stay up Pompey!

BREAKING: Javier Mascherano is OUT as Inter Miami head coach.

Winning on the road in MLS is not easy, but there are so many points to play for. Bruce Arena understands that, and now gets credit for the #Quakes74 two fastest road form starts of the last decade.

Based on the latest MLS Player Status Report, the #Quakes74 might want to look into getting a lower body conditioning coach.

Preston Judd started a GoFundMe for his ailing dog, scored a goal, did a dog pee celebration and then got fined. So I had to talk to him about it.

If you thought Preston Judd's goal celebration last Saturday was questionable, know that he was determined to score and honor his dog Poppy, who recently underwent emergency surgery. "She's like my daughter," he shared today, something every dog lover understands. www.gofundme.com/f/from-poppy...
