Then in stoppage time, with the Scorpions trailing again, Campos scored again to tie the game and help San Antonio earn a point to regain sole possession of first place in the NASL standings.

The Brazilian forward is now the league leader in goals (10).

"His persistency to score and impact a match is the best I've seen in a player," Scorpions Head Coach Tim Hankinson said. "His goals just come from great creativity and determined effort ."

Campos joined the Scorpions prior to this season and is on pace to pass his 12-goal total from his 2011 season with the Carolina Railhawks. Those 12 goals placed Campos second in NASL for 2011.
