MLS 360

Chris Wondolowski’s penalty-kick made him the ninth man to score 100 MLS goals and earned a 1-1 draw against 10-man Orlando City.
Wondo joined the 100 club!
Brek Shea saw red in the 51st minute but Kaka gave Orlando the lead from the penalty spot before Wondolowski’s strike extended the Quakes’ unbeaten run to five games.

In Week 12’s opening match Sporting Kansas City beat New England Revolution 4-2 thanks to a brace from their top-scorer Krisztian Nemeth.
Revolution took the lead through Juan Agudelo before Dom Dwyer spun Jermaine Jones to fire home the equaliser.
Nemeth scored either side of Benny Feilhaber’s penalty: Scott Caldwell notched a consolation for New England, who saw their nine-match unbeaten run come to an end.

The goals dried up when Kansas travelled to second-placed Seattle Sounders as the sides drew 0-0, completing a good week for Sporting KC.

New England also drew their second game of the week, 1-1 with DC United, despite playing 32 minutes with nine men.
