San Diego 5-0
SAN DIEGO (AP) --- Cavan Sullivan recorded his first two-goal game in Major
League Soccer, and he assisted on another goal to help the Philadelphia Union
cruise to a 5-0 victory over San Diego on Sunday night.
Philadelphia (9-10-6) is unbeaten in its last 10 matches, with eight victories,
since the World Cup break.
San Diego (8-11-6) had a four-game home winning streak snapped.
Sullivan has five goals and six assists in his last seven MLS games.
Sullivan opened the scoring in first-half stoppage time on a creative back-heel
flick that deflected in off the post. Then Sullivan powered a shot through the
legs of goalkeeper Duran Ferree from a difficult angle in the 62nd minute for a
2-0 lead.
Sullivan set up the third goal. He chipped it over the defense and Frankie
Westfield ran it down and passed it back to the penalty spot for a wide-open
Bruno Damiani to score his fourth goal in two games.
Philadelphia used an own goal by Anibal Godoy to go ahead 4-0 in the 87th and
Malik Jakupovic scored his first MLS goal in stoppage time.
Andre Blake, who made his 290th appearance for the Union, made five saves to
record his seventh clean sheet of the season.
