Alex Dixon scored a dramatic goal in the 90th minute Saturday night, giving the Pittsburgh Riverhounds a 1-1 draw at San Antonio FC.

The tie allowed the Riverhounds (13-6-5) to move into sole possession of first place in the USL Championship Atlantic Division, one point ahead of Tampa Bay.

San Antonio (8-5-7) took a 1-0 lead in the 64th minute on a goal by Brazilian striker Nathan. Marcus Epps chipped a pass from the top of the penalty area toward the far post, and Nathan headed it home.

Nathan sent a penalty kick over the crossbar earlier in the second half.

Dixon’s tying goal came when he made a run to the back post and headed in a pass from Louis Perez from the left wing.

The Riverhounds host Loudoun United at 7 p.m. next Saturday at Highmark Stadium.
