FRISCO, Texas (AP) — Mike Magee scored in the 17th minute and the Los Angeles Galaxy, playing without stars Landon Donovan and Edson Buddle, beat FC Dallas 1-0 Thursday night to remain unbeaten.
Los Angeles (8-0-2) is two victories shy of the MLS record for most games without a loss to start a season, shared by the 1996 Galaxy and the 2000 Columbus Crew.
The Galaxy have now outscored their opposition 16-2.
Galaxy goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts recorded his league-high seventh shutout, making three saves.
Dallas had its 12-game home unbeaten streak (8-0-4) snapped.
Buddle, who leads the MLS with nine goals, and Donovan are training with the United States’ World Cup squad.
