- CARSON, California: Chad Barrett scored in the 53rd minute as the Los Angeles Galaxy wrapped up the third unbeaten home season in Major League Soccer history with a 1-0 victory over Chivas USA on Sunday.
Los Angeles already clinched the Supporters’ Shield and the top playoff seed with MLS’ best regular-season record, and the Galaxy secured the SuperClasico trophy in its rivalry series with a 2-0 aggregate victory over Chivas.
Los Angeles played without stars Landon Donovan and Robbie Keane. Donovan is resting a strained quadriceps that kept him out of two recent US national team games, while Keane is resting a torn thigh muscle.
The match also might have been the final regular-season home appearance by David Beckham, whose five-year MLS contract expires after the season. The Galaxy remain hopeful the English superstar will extend his stay in Hollywood, but Beckham has said he won’t decide his future until the offseason.
Los Angeles has 67 points in the MLS standings, the most by any club since the league abandoned the shootout after the 1999 season.
