LA Galaxy use own goal to down San Jose 1-0
Posted May 29, 2021 7:00 am
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The San Jose Earthquakes' Tanner Beason's own goal late in the match was the only score of the game in LA Galaxy's 1-0 win on Saturday.
Samuel Grandsir was working down the right side, shed a defender and appeared to center in front of the goal mouth that ricocheted off Beason's left foot and into the net at the 70th minute.
Eight minutes later, Galaxy (5-2-0) keeper Jonathan Bond thwarted Andrés RÃos with a sliding save to preserve the lead.
San Jose's (3-5-0) offensive woes continue as the Earthquakes now have been shutout in three of their last four contests in the midst of a four-game losing streak.
