EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) – Clint Mathis had a goal and an assist to lead the New York-New Jersey MetroStars past the Dallas Burn 3-2 Saturday.

The MetroStars (2-1-1) had only five shots on goal in the first half but still managed to score twice.

Petter Villegas took a diagonal pass from Mathis in the 22nd minute, eluded charging Burn goalie Matt Jordan, and shot the ball in. Mark Chung made it 2-0 15 minutes later when his left-footed shot went between Jordan and the near post from 12 yards out.

Mathis, who missed last week's loss to Tampa Bay because he was with the U.S. national team, scored in the 60th minute with a solo run. He dribbled around two defenders and drilled a low 15-yard shot past Jordan.

Richard Farrer knocked in a rebound off the left post in the 71st for Dallas (2-2), and Jorge Rodriguez added a penalty kick after MetroStars defender was whistled for a hand ball.
