The San Jose Earthquakes, one of the founding clubs of Major League Soccer (MLS) in 1996, are an emblem of professional soccer in Northern California. Originally known as the San Jose Clash, the team adopted its current name in 1999, a nod to the North American Soccer League (NASL) franchise that played in the 1970s. Throughout their history, the club has experienced highs and lows, including a golden era in the early 2000s when they won two MLS Cups (2001, 2003) with legendary figures like Landon Donovan.
Following a controversial two-year hiatus where the franchise relocated to Houston, the Earthquakes returned to MLS in 2008, much to the delight of their loyal fanbase. This rebirth culminated in winning the Supporters' Shield in 2012, led by MLS all-time leading goalscorer Chris Wondolowski, a club icon. This period solidified their reputation as a team with an unbreakable fighting spirit, often summarized by their unofficial motto "Goonies never say die" for their knack for scoring late, dramatic goals.
Today, the Earthquakes play at the acclaimed PayPal Park, a modern, soccer-specific stadium that has vastly improved the matchday experience.
