Daniel Steres scores in 62nd, Galaxy tie Rapids 1-1
CARSON, Calif. (AP) Daniel Steres scored in the 62nd minute and the Los Angeles Galaxy played to a third straight draw in a 1-1 tie with the Colorado Rapids on Saturday night.
Los Angeles (9-3-11) is undefeated in its last nine games. Colorado (11-3-9) hasn't won at the StubHub Center since 2013.
Shkelzen Gashi hammered a shot from distance in the 51st minute to give Colorado a lead. Steres scored on a glancing header of Steven Gerrard's corner kick.
Gyasi Zardes had a one-on-one opportunity in the 11th minute but Tim Howard went low to deflect it away. Howard also stretched to get a hand on Giovani dos Santos' shot from distance in first-half stoppage time.
Los Angeles goalkeeper Brian Rowe was helped off the field in the 82nd minute after a scary collision with Kevin Doyle inside the 6-yard box. He gave a thumbs-up while leaving the field and was replaced by Dan Kennedy. The Galaxy's Robbie Keane missed the game with an orbital fracture.
