SAN JOSE, Calif. - Adam Jahn finished a Shea Salinas cross in the 88th minute Saturday night and the San Jose Earthquakes tied D.C. United 1-1.

The same cities met nearly 20 years ago, on April 6, 1996, when D.C. United and the San Jose Clash kicked off the first Major League Soccer match at San Jose State's Spartan Stadium.

Both Jahn and Salinas entered as substitutes after the 70th minute for the Quakes (3-1-0). Jahn redirected Salinas' diagonal entry pass with a roundhouse, right-footed kick.

Patrick Nyarko opened the scoring for United (0-2-3) in the 34th minute with a high-leaping header from the centre of the area off Lamar Neagle's cross.

Nyarko left the game on a stretcher in the 82nd minute. He had an awkward landing after his attempt to defend a San Jose cross in the attacking end.

United and the Columbus Crew are the only winless teams remaining in MLS.
