In reaching the midway point of the schedule — 17 matches packed into three months — United required another home comeback to avoid defeat. Luciano Acosta scored for United (7-4-6) in the 67th minute after Chris Wondolowski, MLS’s all-time leading scorer, put the Earthquakes (5-6-3) ahead late in the first half. A crowd of 18,002 at Audi Field included U.S. men’s national team coach Gregg Berhalter. United lost Birnbaum in the 60th minute, the result of an aerial collision with Florian Jungwirth on a corner kick.
