Kai Wallin's third sack and Cooper DiLeva's fourth field goal both landed with 57 seconds left on Saturday night.

All four goals came in the first 39 minutes in Carson on Saturday night. Joao Klauss scored in the fourth minute and Erik Thommy in the 17th for the Galaxy. Anders Dreyer converted a penalty in the 10th and Gabriel Pirani equalized in the 39th, and a scoreless second half left San Diego FC still without a win since August.
