Why can't the LA Galaxy stop giving up late goals?

Lately, it seems the Galaxy have forgotten how to defend at the end of matches.

On the final play of the game vs. Montreal, Didier Drogba's knuckling free kick from distance should have been a routine save for goalkeeper Brian Rowe, but the ball slipped through his hands to give the Impact three points.

The sequence was similar to what happened vs. the Rapids earlier this year, when an errant Daniel Steres clearance fell to Marco Pappa, who banged home a volley late in stoppage time to seal another last-second collapse.
