Columbus, OH (Sports Network) - Ryan Johnson and Ramiro Corrales scored to lead the San Jose Earthquakes to a 2-0 win Saturday over the slumping Columbus Crew in Major League Soccer.

The Earthquakes (3-6-1) won for the second time in their last three matches and avenged a 3-2 loss to the Crew on May 10.

Since that game, when Columbus scored three goals in an 11-minute stretch to rally for its fifth straight victory, the Crew (6-4-1) haven't scored a goal. Columbus is winless in its last four - including three straight losses.

Columbus came close to ending its goalless streak less than 10 minutes into the match when Guillermo Barros Schelotto delivered a free kick from the right side that Chad Marshall headed on goal.

San Jose goalie Joe Cannon was in position and made an easy save on the Crew's only shot on goal in the half in the ninth minute.

San Jose countered with its only shot on goal in the first half and the 'Quakes made it count.

Ronnie O'Brien sent a cross from the right sideline to the far post to Johnson, who jumped to head the ball off Columbus goalie Will Hesmer's hand and into the left side of the net in the 10th minute.

Johnson scored his second goal of the season despite having Crew defender Ezra Hendrickson right next to him. O'Brien's assist was his second of the season.

Corrales doubled Sane Jose's lead in the 60th minute. He headed a cross from O'Brien past Hesmer for his second goal of the season. O'Brien increased his assist total to three.

Columbus started to show some life offensively after going two goals down. But when the Crew looked to have cut the deficit in half when Alejandro Moreno put the ball into the back of the net in the 66th minute, the goal was wiped out on a hand ball.

Moreno claimed to have directed the ball into the net with his chest, but there was no doubt the ball went off his arm. He received a yellow for the hand ball.

Robbie Rogers had another good scoring chance for Columbus in the 70th, but his attempt was saved by Cannon.

The Crew's hopes of another rally ended in the 80th minute when Brad Evans got a red card for a serious foul. The 'Quakes also went down a man in the final 10 minutes when James Riley received his second yellow card.

Columbus still couldn't solve San Jose's defense with more space available and its scoreless streak has now surpassed just over four games.

The Crew will try to snap out of their funk on April 14 at the Kansas City Wizards. San Jose will try to build on its win April 14 when it hosts the Los Angeles Galaxy.
