Minnesota United FCvsSan Jose Earthquakes
MIN 5/SJ 1
Things to say
Minnesota United thumped San Jose 5-1 at PayPal Park.
01
opener
Yeah, San Jose got absolutely run off their own pitch. Minnesota put up five on the road. It was over by halftime, honestly.
02
key player
Kelvin Yeboah was a menace up top for Minnesota, five shots and all over the box. San Jose had no answer for him.
03
hot take
Timo Werner had four shots and nothing to show for it. Same old story with that guy, all noise no goals.
04
deep cut
Drake Callender still made five saves in a 5-1 loss on the other end, so it could've been way uglier for San Jose.
05
exit
Anyway, that road form for Minnesota is real. Curious to see if they can keep it rolling next week.
The recap
Minnesota went into San Jose and absolutely ran riot, hanging five on the Earthquakes for a 5-1 romp at PayPal Park. Kelvin Yeboah led the line with five shots and made a mess of the home defense, while Drake Callender was busy enough to rack up five saves keeping it from getting silly at the other end.
San Jose had Timo Werner buzzing around with four shots of his own, but once Minnesota got rolling it was a total paddling. Five goals on the road is the kind of night that flatters the record and ruins the host's weekend.
