Hernan Lopez and William Yarbrough help Earthquakes end poor run with 1-0 win over Fire

SAN JOSE, Calif. (Reuters) – Rookie Hernan Lopez scored early in the second half and William Yarborough added a goal to keep his first clean sheet of the season as the San Jose Earthquakes ended a six-game losing streak and a nine-game winless streak with a 1-0 win over the Chicago Fire on Sunday night.

The Earthquakes (4-16-2) earned their first win in their third game under interim coach Ian Russell, who took over on June 24 when the club fired Luchi Gonzalez. Russell made 131 appearances for San Jose from 2000-05, winning championships with the club in 2001 and 2003 and winning the San Jose Supporters' Cup for the first time in 2005.

The only goal of the game came when Lopez received a pass from Cristian Espinosa four minutes into the second half and scored his fourth goal of the season. It was Espinosa's 11th assist of the season, and Lopez made his 10th start and 12th appearance.

Yarborough finished the game with one save to earn his first clean sheet of his first season with the Earthquakes.

Chris Brady had three saves for the Fire (5-11-6). Brady had two saves and Yarbrough had one in the scoreless first half.

San Jose earned its first win since a 3-2 away win over the Colorado Rapids on May 11. Lopez and Espinoza scored in that win.

The Fire head home to face New York City FC on Saturday, while the Earthquakes host Sporting Kansas City on Saturday.
