Robbie Keane scored a second-half brace to fire the Los Angeles Galaxy to a comeback win over Dallas in their MLS clash.
The home side were the first to threaten when Rolando Escobar was afforded time and space on the edge of the box, but his drive was well saved by Donovan Ricketts.
Blas Perez almost put Dallas ahead when he rose above Leonardo in the box to head an effort at goal, but his effort went inches wide of the target.
Dallas did go ahead when Michael Barrios beat the challenge of Omar Gonzalez and held his composure to slot the ball under Ricketts.
In the second half, the visitors pulled level when Robbie Rogers lifted a cross into the box and Keane attacked the ball at the back post to guide his header beyond Dan Kennedy.
The Galaxy took the lead as Steven Gerrard won the ball from Fabian Castillo in midfield and played a through-ball for the run of Keane, who fired an effort past Kennedy.
Perez broke through the Galaxy defence as the home side searched for a response, but his strike was well saved by Ricketts.
Dallas continued to push forward and Escobar came within inches of an equaliser when he fired at goal from the edge of the box, but his shot sailed just over the bar.
Ricketts ensured that his side secured the victory as he denied Castillo's powerful strike in the dying minutes to claim the three points at Toyota Stadium.
