Seattle Sounders have suffered a 2-1 defeat to San Jose Earthquakes at home in Major League Soccer.

The visitors went ahead at the CenturyLink Field as early as the second minute, when Simon Dawkins fired in from outside the box with his right foot.

The lead lasted for just 12 minutes, as Steve Zakuani equalised for Sounders with a close-range effort after being released by Samuel Ochoa.

Then on the half-hour mark San Jose regained their one-goal advantage, Chris Wondolowski turning in Victor Bernardez's delivery from just yards out.

Both sides created chances to add to their respective tally in the second half but failed, as San Jose returned home with maximum points.
