Quakes' record stands after Chivas USA loss
We noted a few weeks ago that Chivas USA needed only to win or tie their final three home games to go undefeated at home this year, matching the record set by the 2005 Earthquakes.
The Gringo Goats weren't up to the task. Despite the 46th minute ejection of Brandon Prideaux, the Rapids scored two second-half goals, the second coming in the 90th minute, to defeat Chivas at the Home Depot Center on Sunday.
As we mentioned two years ago, the Quakes' ongoing home unbeaten streak currently stands at 18 games. We look forward to seeing it continue next season.
Yesterday's story in the Salinas Californian mentioned that Ramiro Corrales' agent had already been in touch with new Quakes GM John Doyle about a potential move. Corrales currently plays for Norwegian side Brann, and according to his profile on their web site, he is under contract through the end of 2009.
