LA Galaxy Vs. FC Dallas, 2012 MLS: Final Score 1-1, Noonan Goal Earns LA Split

The LA Galaxy and FC Dallas drew 1-1 in a pretty boring match at the Home Depot Center. The Galaxy had the better of chances from open play, with Landon Donovan hitting the post after breaking through the Dallas in the first half and Juninho buzzing the top of the net as the game drew to a close.

By that point, the hosts had already missed a penalty - Robbie Keane hitting just wide from the spot after Jair Benitez bundled over Landon Donovan in the box - and Dallas had gone ahead through a penalty of their own, Brek Shea slotting in following Bill Gaudette's foul on Blas Perez just outside the six yard box. It looked like the Galaxy were in trouble as the seconds ticked away, but Pat Noonan was on hand to salvage a point very late on when he latched onto a cutback from Robbie Keane and blasted past Chris Seitz to secure a point for the hosts. They won't be pleased with that, but it sure beats a home loss.
