The Los Angeles Galaxy edged the Colorado Rapids 1-0 on Sunday in the MLS Playoffs Western Conference Semifinal first leg with Giovani Dos Santos grabbing the winner. He found the net after a fine assist from Jelle Van Damme to beat USMNT goalkeeper Tim Howard early in the second half. Take a look at the goal, which sees the ball hit a defender and enter the far side of the goal.

Fortunate goal, but a big goal and huge not to concede with the second leg next Sunday in Colorado.
