Match Info
The San Jose Earthquakes opened their 2026 Major League Soccer season with an emphatic 3-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City on February 22. A dominant performance at PayPal Park saw the Earthquakes score twice in the first half and add a third after the break to seal a perfect start. The home side took an early lead through a deflected shot from the edge of the area, settling any nerves. They doubled their advantage before halftime with a close-range tap-in following a chaotic goalmouth scramble. Sporting Kansas City offered little in response, and San Jose put the result beyond doubt in the 65th minute with a well-taken finish from a swift counter-attack. This statement win immediately puts San Jose at the top of the Western Conference, while SKC has much to ponder after a flat opening-day display.
