HARRISON, N.J. (AP) — Tim Cahill scored on a header in second half stoppage time, lifting the New York Red Bulls to a 1-0 victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday.
It was the fifth win in the last six games for the Red Bulls (7-4-3).
With the game in stoppage time, Juninho made a free kick pass in front, where Cahill rose above the defenders to head home the game winner.
Luis Robles made three saves to record his fourth shutout of the season.
In the 76th minute, the Galaxy (5-4-2) had two great chances, both from Gyasi Zardes. On the first attempt, Red Bulls defender Jamison Olave, who had a brilliant all-around game, made a sliding tackle to knock the ball away. Two minutes later, Zardes fired a right-footed blast from 10 yards out that Robles punched aside.
