The defense of Los Angeles Galaxy, Maya Yoshida, had the only score on Sunday night, but it was his own goal that led to a 1-0 victory for Sporting Kansas City. With the victory, they made history, becoming the first MLS team to win a game without registering a goal shot.

It was only the third victory in 11 attempts for Sporting Kansas City, this season, but his second in the last three games.

In the 13th minute, Daniel Salloi de KC sent a cross on the ground, and deviated from Maya Yoshida and on the network. There was no attacker close enough of the cross to threaten him, but Yoshida tried to make a defensive play and went wrong.

John Pulskamp had to make a salvation, and arrived in the first half on the way to his second clean sheet at his 11th beginning of the season for Sporting Kc. His rescue arrived just before part time in a right -foot shot from the center of the box by John Nelson.

John McCarthy didn’t have a salvation for galaxy.

It was a sweet revenge for Dejan Joveljic, who arrived at Sporting KC in the first cash trade per player in the history of the League after helping the Galaxy win their sixth MLS Cup last season. He leads the team with five goals, all at home.

The galaxy has lost Riqui Puig, who has not played since he suffered a knee injury in the playoffs. And Joseph Paintsil and Gabriel Pec, who combined for 50 goals contributions in the championship race, have only four so far this season.
