Midfielder Onni Valakari came off the bench Saturday night to score the club's first-ever goal at their home of Snapdragon Stadium, connecting a towering header off a Luca de la Torre corner kick. The 69th-minute equalizer salvaged a 1-1 draw for SDFC against the Columbus Crew.

The result improved San Diego's record to 2W-0L-2D – joining St. Louis CITY SC (5W-0L-0D in 2023) as one of only two expansion clubs in MLS history to go undefeated through their first four games of a season.

Mikey Varas' side ended Matchday 4 tied for second place in the Western Conference along with St. Louis and the Colorado Rapids, behind only Vancouver Whitecaps FC. However, a first home win at Snapdragon Stadium still awaits.

After their Sunday Night Soccer presented by Continental Tire visit to Austin FC on Matchday 5 (4 pm ET | MLS Season Pass), San Diego return home on March 29 to host California rivals LAFC.
