DENVER (AP) -- Mark Chung scored the second of his two goals in the 76th minute to lead the Colorado Rapids to a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday.
Carlos Valderrama tied the game for the Rapids (6-3-1) in the 67th minute, scoring his first goal in two years.
Goalkeeper Scott Garlick stopped six shots and preserved Colorado's fourth win in its last five games with a sprawling save on a shot by Sasha Victorine in the final four minutes.
Carlos Ruiz scored two goals for the Galaxy (4-4-2), who lost
their third straight game. Ruiz's second goal in the 65th minute
gave Los Angeles a 2-1 lead.
Colorado failed to convert on four good scoring chances, two by Chris Henderson, who sailed shots over the crossbar, in the game's first 29 minutes. Ruiz put a shot under Garlick's right arm in the 32nd minute to put the Galaxy ahead 1-0.
Chung took a pass from Chris Carrieri 30 feet out and tied it at
1 with a shot from the slot in the 43rd minute.
