VANCOUVER (AP) — Heath Pearce scored in the 85th minute as the New York Red Bulls salvaged a 1-1 tie with the Vancouver Whitecaps on Wednesday night.
Pearce sprinted through a crowd to head Joel Lindpere’s cross past goalkeeper Joe Cannon,
Martin Bonjour’s goal in the 75th minute gave the Whitecaps a late lead. The ball was crossed by Davide Chiumiento from the right wing and after a friendly touch by Alain Rochat it found its way to Bonjour at the top of the box.
After a brief hesitation he belted a right-footed shot into the top right portion of the net.
