CARSON, Calif. (AP) - Samuel Grandsir scored and Jonathan Bond had five saves to help the LA Galaxy tie El TrÃ¡fico rival Los Angeles FC 1-1 on Sunday night.

Bond had his third shutout of the season and his first since a 1-0 win over Real Salt Lake on Aug. 4.

VÃctor VÃ¡zquez played a through ball to the top of the area where Grandsir beat goalkeeper Jamal Blackman - who had charged off his line - before rolling in an empty-netter to tie it in the 17th minute.

The Galaxy (11-11-6) are winless in nine straight games dating to a 1-0 victory at Minnesota United on Aug. 14.

Mamadou 'œMbacke'ť Fall opened the scoring in the sixth minute, when he headed home a corner kick by Eduard Atuesta.

LAFC (9-12-7) is winless, with three losses, in its last four games.
