ST. PAUL, Min. — The Galaxy rallied from a goal down to earn a 2-2 draw with Minnesota United on Saturday at Allianz Field.
Galaxy substitute Emiro Garcés netted his first professional league goal in the 90th minute to tie the game. The goal came three minutes after Minnesota’s Kelvin Yeboah
scored from the penalty spot.
It was Garcés first professional goal in six seasons, spanning time in both MLS and Colombia.
The goal followed a failed clearance of a corner kick by Minnesota. The Galaxy’s Miguel Berry sent the ball back toward the penalty area, finding Garcés, who sent it into the back of the net past Minnesota goalkeeper Alec Smir.
Galaxy’s Christian Ramirez scored against his former team in the 26th minute, and the defending champions earned their second straight draw on the road after opening the season with three consecutive losses.
Galaxy will face Orlando City SC next Saturday in Carson at Dignity Health Sports Park.
