FRISCO, Texas — Abe Thompson scored in the 91st minute to help FC Dallas tie the Kansas City Wizards 1-1 on Friday night.

Thompson, who entered the game as a substitute for forward Dominic Oduro in the second half, scored his second goal of the season from 7 yards out.

Eric Avila setup the score with a crossing pass from 25 yards away on the left side to Thompson who angled a header into the right corner of the net.

Scott Sealy's second goal of the year in the 39th minute snapped a 448-minute span where no Kansas City (4-5-5) player had scored a goal. Sealy took a pass from Claudio Lopez and dribbled a few steps past FC Dallas defender Drew Moor before firing a left-footed shot from 15 yards away for a 1-0 Wizards' lead.

REVOLUTION 2, GALAXY 1: At Carson, Calif., Adam Cristman scored two goals in a 4-minute span to give the Revolution a victory over the Galaxy.

The Revolution (10-4-3) used the victory to extend their lead in the Eastern Conference to seven points over second-place Columbus.

David Beckham scored his fifth goal of the season for the Galaxy (6-6-3).
