LA Galaxy Use Own Goal For 1-0 Win Over San Jose Earthquakes

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 Ríos 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.
