Defender Guilherme Biro scores in 2nd-half stoppage time as Austin plays Earthquakes to 1-1 draw

AUSTIN, Texas -- AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Defender Guilherme Biro scored in second-half stoppage time as Austin FC played the San Jose Earthquakes to a 1-1 draw on Saturday night.

Austin (6-10-7), which entered the match in 14th place in the Western Conference, is 3-3-2 in league play since the World Cup break.

San Jose (10-8-5) played to a draw for the second straight match following a four-game losing streak.

Brandon Vázquez headed a cross to the center of the box that Christian Ramírez touched forward for a left-footed finish by Biro from a difficult angle. It was Biro's third goal of the season.

San Jose went ahead early with a left-footed strike to the bottom corner by Beau Leroux in the eighth minute. Moments later Austin thought it had a response, but the video assistant referee ruled the goal out for a handball.
