Bijev lifted his side – playing with just 10-men – to a 2-1 advantage when Jaime Villarreal spotted the former Liverpool FC playmaker on the far flank and the winger rifled his attempt on target. The shot kissed off the inside of the post and by the visiting goalkeeper to ensure all three points for Sacramento.
